This is the first part of my new series I'm working on. There is no sex of any kind. Growing up I idolized my single working mother. She was tough and took no shit from anyone. She got respect everywhere she went, mostly because of her personality. She wasn't into girly things, like manicures or makeup. No, my mom was a natural beauty in every way. She al...
"May, flag our waiter Nick down and order another bottle of roditas. Eric is squeezing the empty one dry and I think that he's gonna hurt his hands." We all laughed. Being slightly tipsy, we watched a much more tipsy Eric try to 'wring' more wine out of our third bottle. It was pretty funny. Rob was the DD tonight and I know that May has a bottle of Knob Cre...
All characters are over 18 ***** "I can't wait to get out of this school." Kayla said. Most 12th graders would be devastated if they found out their family was moving after being in high school for three years than starting something new; but not Kayla. She was a type of girl that had her core group of friends, and everyone else resented her. But there wa...
Returning To School After Two Days of Bliss The alarm screamed into my ears. Lizzy reached over and turned off the alarm clock. It was dark outside and I asked Lizzy, "What time is it?" She looked at the face of the alarm clock and said. "4:15 a.m." "4:15! Why did you set it for 4:15?" "I'm sorry Billy, I never reset it since we last used it. Remember I...
Berry woke up, just like every day, to the sound of her alarm on the phone. She took it, turned it off, and look at the hour. It was exactly one hour before her first lesson at school. She got up from the bed, and still in her loose gray pajama went to the bathroom next door, where she took a fast shower, brushed her teeth and her shoulder-length black hair....

I would have gotten bored with this otherwise. You readers are fueling this story. A big thanks to two readers - my new friends Jay and an anonymous user - who reached out to me and helped...
Ch. 01: Mom in a school uniform 'That was your school on the phone! You've been skipping classes!' Rose crossly spoke. 'Sorry mom. I went the first day, but it was so different, I didn't know anyone. . .' Janice shrugged. 'We had to move to a cheaper apartment, you know that. I'm sorry about the change of schools, but we just have to make the best of it,'...
Chapter Three: "The next few weeks" The next morning, Monday, all was well. Jessie drove Jenny to school. Before she left her, Jessie said to Jenny, "Remember, you are to delay as long as you can until Silva shows up." "Yes mom." Jessie drove to work and had a great day. First, her immediate boss thanked her for her hard work. Then the CEO sent her a pe...
Chapter 8 – Eloisa The weather quickly changed a couple of days after Kim's birthday. Cold rain and sleet constantly bombarded the dreary streets of Danube City, with the promise that there would be no let-up until next spring. The pavement was covered with cold water and the last of the bicyclists were driven off the streets and into the city's trolleys. T...
Small note, I have realized that the last name of the lead character has changed a few times throughout the chapters. To correct this error and to keep things consistent, Cynthia's last name from here on out will be what it was originally stated; Miss Watts. Also, I would like to apologize for the long delay for this part to the story; I just have not been a...
