Our Year
Why?Why did I have to be left with Adam? The floor was littered with paper, glass, and other gunk. The party got out of hand, people throwing bottles everywhere and yelling.

Apple tree
Many people came to see the apple tree. Over the years there were thousands of visitors every month. Slowly the number decreased. Going lower and lower. Eventually, nobody went to the apple tree. Construction workers were going to cut it down. "Harper, this tree needs to go." Harper's father would tell his daughter. "But Dad!!!! I love that tree you can't cut it down!" Harper would say. Her dad gave her the look of, I know you like that tree but I have to cut it down. I'm sorry. Harper knew this look well. She ran out of the house her brown hair flying behind her. Up the hill behind the well....
