Robin walked comfortably around the ship hiding her excitement as best she could while watching her cheerful friends go about their daily routines. It had been roughly two hours since she had left Nami to simmer in their room, and whilst she has kept herself mostly out of sight, she had been wandering in the open from time to time. There was no doubt that Ro...
Stephen is the name. Most people call me Stevie for short. I'm a young brother living in Brockton. A six-foot-two, 240-pound African American male with mocha skin. Like many other young folks living in the city of Champions, I go to Massasoit Community College. I'm taking up Criminal Justice there. I'm in my first semester. Soon, I'm going to head to Bridgew...
I stare at the door in front of me, hand clenched into a fist at my side as I debate turning around and leaving. I could pretend I'd never caved like this, pretend I'd never stood staring at the wooden grains and brass knocker. Who am I kidding? I couldn't do that. Not again. I knock, ignoring the hoop of metal affixed to the door, and step back. Lip caught...
"Hey Brad, it's me Tori." "Hi Tori, what's up?" "I...I was wondering if you'd like to have an appointment this week?" She stammered. "Well, we had one just last week. I'm kind of not ready to give it a go again," he said, trying to keep the sound of his smile from her. "Oh, well, I...um...I..." "Did you want to have one this week Tori?" "Um...kind of.....
When she returned to the apartment she found the note that Adam left on the refrigerator telling her that he was out for a walk. The note also said that there was half a turkey sub and a beet salad in the refrigerator for her if she wanted it and she was standing there thinking "He is so much like the old Adam, thoughtful and considerate in leaving a note a...
My wife and I had been waiting all summer for our weekend camping trip to the Michigan woods. Finally we had the pop up camper in tow and were on our way. The 12 hour trip seemed like it would never end as we finally pulled into our site and put the camper up. My wife Deb and I spent several hours unpacking and setting up camp for our week long getaway from...
Slinging my heavy duffel bag onto my shoulder, I followed the group of people in front of me down the carpeted tunnel and onto the waiting airplane. I was suddenly happy that I hadn't gone to sleep yet because I absolutely hate flying and taking a nap would not only keep me from being afraid during the trip but would also assure that I wouldn't be travel-tir...
500 miles is one hell of a long distance to travel in this country sometimes. Especially when you don't drive and can't afford a train ticket anywhere. When you're 21, it's easy to look like a student and hitch lifts anywhere you want, but when you're ten years older the cold eases into your muscles so much more easily, and these long trips hurt a little mor...
Position. That was the problem. He was sitting in the cheap apartment he'd rented to save money while he was getting his credit equivalencies, after getting back. He was frustrated and pissed off. The school work bored the shit out of him and he hated the professors at the community college. They were a pack of soft, pudgy, pasty, smirking, condescending ci...
