    The first one walked towards the tree in the early hours last Friday, she was tearful, staring at the trunk in silent regret. She was pretty, curly black hair, dark skin, but had the dullest of brown eyes. Her arm swiveled towards the branches a foot over her head, hand just barely grazing the pink blossoms before a quiet whimper emerged from her lips. "I'm sorry, Mill. This is the last time I'm coming to this damn tree," She frowned, holding a diploma in her left hand. "It's Michelle if you didn't already know... dumbass."

The less I get to see you, the better.”And so another day started: ordinary, but horribly so, or perhaps it was this horrible feeling of it that had become so ordinary to us: Emil and I, who were already arguing the moment we stepped out of our gates.
