Mirror
The sun slowly rose rising over the houses across the street causing the outside air to become warm and sticky. The winds were starting to whistle softly through the open window of the bedroom. Emily stood in front the mirror staring at herself at the beginning of a long day. She had fair skin, beautiful long dark hair and a tall, slender frame. Her eyes resemble Chrysocolla marbles. She stood there wondering after three months of marriage how she had become a wife in such a primitive institution. How will she deal with the demands of a man that she loves, that has beliefs that she feels so much against?
“I am a lawyer with a flourishing practice. Oh god, another day in this mental hell hole.” Grumbled Emily to herself as she slammed the bedroom door behind her.

I plan to have a career and children. Sorry but I do not want to be a stay at home mom. I could never do what you have done for us. I love you for all that you have done and still do but this is not for me.” Emily snapped back to reality by the honk from the car horn behind her. The lights outside her window start to look like a flashes of color as her speed gradually increases. Her mind runs back to the conversation she had with Tom. “Yeah, about that, when is your last day of work? This is not a visit, my mother is moving in,” She hears her mother’s voice, “do not let anyone interfere with your marriage.” This is exactly what Betty is doing. I can understand her moving closer, but to move in. That is another story. She is now all worked up again. Emily pulls into the empty space in front of Andrea’s house.
Slowly walking up the driveway with tears streaming down her face, Andrea meets her halfway. She had seen the car drive parked erratically. Andrea knew it was Emily by the color and make of her
