    I could hear them gossiping in the seat behind me on the bus, about Lyla, a cryptic like woman that lived on my block, about five doors away. She came out of a cab on crutches last night, which wasn’t a big surprise; because it wasn’t the first time she had been spotted like that. She spent much of the time wearing vast, dark glasses. Maybe she wanted an air of mystery, but the real mystery was whether she was hiding a black eye or not. “Well she is definitely putting up with something that she shouldn’t,” hollered the taller girl, with an air of authority.…

    Several days before the start of our last year in high school, my neighbor and I divided our time between hunting and surfing to end our summer. I really just wanted to go to the beach, but Johnny refused to give up the precious narrow window of time between the start of deer season and the start of the school year. One day, he came into our house uninvited.

This was a normal occurrence of his, seeing as nobody locked their doors in this little hicktown, especially not my mother.…
