Mary the Tree
Hannah-I sighed, and looked up at Mary,"Today sucked."Someone gave me a weird look as they walked past and I couldn't help but practically yell-"Yes I'm talking to a tree that I gave a name, do you have a problem with that?!"Ok I know what you're thinking, but I'm not crazy, okay? Mary is the only person, well tree, that will listen to what I have to say. So I continued to tell Mary about how I tripped in front of the girl I like and landed right on my face. Her name is Taylor, and she is perfect. Although she has never looked my way before, I look at her everyday. I look at her silky blonde h...
The Bright Spots
The restroom reeked with the pungent smell of Lysol mixed with aromatic bathroom freshener. The single bulb that dimly illuminated the room blinked on and off, on and off, like an oscillating fan, in a dizzying, inconsistent cycle. Adam had gotten used to the winking of the light and paid it no heed as he swept. Back and forth, back and forth, with the same tedious rewww.onedoor.ccpetition as the flashing bulb.

He's looks like a ragamuffin with that but immensely afternoonified and genteel I mus...
Life Overnight
“Should I send it?”Silence.“Ami?”I shake my head as I tune into the present. “Yeah, send it.”“You didn’t even read what I put!”“Oh my god, Lili, you’ve rewritten that one-worded message for the past hour. ‘Hey’ sounds perfect. Just send it already.”I open my notebook and pretend to study my English notes. I know a good best friend would be better to help with messaging a crush for the first time, but Lili’s indecisiveness has diluted the excitement. She probably wants to tell me I feel this way because I’m a Virgo, to which I would laugh and roll my eyes. I know this girl all too well, which i...
