Thunder erupted over head as I watched him go. I felt the rain start to hit my head, getting me soaked in an instant. Before he went into his house, he turned back one more time and looked at me with those sad eyes. “Looks like you have your storm.” And then he was gone, leaving me standing out in the rain.Sara Massa

What was that about?” he asked his voice deep with a bitter distain. I raised an eyebrow at him, “What was what about?”“ All that, ‘Are-you-okay?’ and ‘Do-you-want-to-talk-about-it?’ crap.”“ I was being nice. You know, that thing you being the total opposite of right now.Sara Massa

That’s when I couldn’t hold on any longer and I let the blackness consume me.Sara Massa

My mom was not too happy when I came home late and smelling like a crematorium.Sara Massa

She couldn’t hit me even if the ball got launched by a canon. Well, maybe not a canon, but something that would launch it pretty fast.Sara Massa
