  • Picnic Day

    It was just another normal day and our parents went out of town last week so my sister and I decided to invite our friends to a picnic this afternoon at the park because we had nothing else to do. We thought it would be fun because we haven't had one productive day ever since summer came. We felt like couch potatoes just munching on chips and binge watching Grey's Anatomy.Don't get me wrong, spending time with my family is fun but you can't really do much when you're with them. Except maybe my sister because she's been my best friend ever since I was a kid. I just don't want us to waste our re...5oEone door

    Alone in Snow

    Snow. It had been a calming, cozy word not only a day ago. As my eyes moved from one tree to the next, they all looked the same, their branches heavy with pure white snow. The glass fogged every time I breathed out and slowly fadwww.onedoor.cces away, only to be fogged again. I could feel the pulse at the edge of my numb fingers beneath the gloves and my feet were hugged to my chest. Am I going to die here? The faint memory of me stumbling between the trees, my feet deep in snow, and bursting into the cabin that I didn’t even know existed, made me hold my hands tighter around my legs. My phone laid a few fe...5oEone door
