Save You

colour you really like?" Anya asks. "Well, for Angela," Vanessa starts, while gesturing to Angela, but is cut off. "I was thinking we could go for an older look, something flattering but not over the top. And I want a fitted short dress, one that compliments my body. No lace, whatsoever, but I like a bit of sparkle. I want strapless of course and as for the colour, I want it to be dark ruby," Angela says, conceitedly. Demanding much? I mean, it's nice to know exactly what you want, but you…

want you to read and then tell me if you know who wrote it: “Enjoying what we do is not always a feeling of enjoyment; it is sometimes the gritty resolution a man or woman shows in doing what must be done — perhaps with inner dread and yet without whimpering self-pity. I like the phrase, “without whimpering self-pity.” It sounds much more dramatic and important than the phrase, “without complaining.” I also like the phrase, “gritty resolution.” Was there anything that you did last week that you…

The Prius wasn’t...a new car. It was several years old, actually, and even if it hadn’t been Lucinda’s family would have done good work on it and you might have thought that it was. A booster seat was buckled haphazardly in the back next to an abandoned McDonald’s bag that held a single decaying fry, which clung to its short fast-food life with all the desperation of students on their last day of summer. I could relate. When I got in, my friend apologized for the “old weed” smell - her older…

Living in America, life should be richer, and fuller for everyone, with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement, regardless of social class or circumstances of birth. Everyone around the world conflicts with their differences and in America, not everyone agrees. Some have stronger beliefs than others and sometimes we meet in the middle. Living in America we have created a diverse society by expressing true opinions and understanding the value our country has to offer. Everyone…

"This is your room," Amelia repeated from the doorway. "You can do with it what you want, it's your zone nobody else's. If you don't like the paint we can change it," "No - its - its perfect," he murmured softly before turning away and smiling at the older woman. "Thank you," "You're oh so very welcome," Amelia laughed although her voice did hitch slightly. "Your trunk is at the bottom of your bed, Susan is here but she wanted to give you room to get used to things." Turning, Harry instantly…

A poor woodcutter refuses to share his meal with both Jesus and the Virgin Mary to present his social injustices in Christianity. The woodcutter explains the reason that “I think you neglect the poor. You give everything to the rich and so little to the poor” (1609). Furthermore, the woodcutter only shares his meal with Death. In this tale, Death symbolizes the balance of justice because she “[doesn’t] play favorites with the wealthy because…

like a bass drum in my ears as I run. I can barely breathe but I don’t stop. I reach my car, crank the engine and put my foot to the floor. Driving through the streets of Brisbane to the highway, I start to think over Alice’s and my relationship. “You should come over this weekend. We can work on our project.” I messaged her late at night. “Okay, I’ll ask my parents.” Alice answers quickly before confirming she can. On Saturday morning, she arrives at my house. We work on our project, have nice…

“Rider honey you startled me. Why are you so happy?” Nanami asked her son. “I got a date this Saturday,” Rider said. “Honey that’s wonderful. Who is she? What’s her name? Where are you taking her?” Nanami asked her son. “Mom relax what is this 20 questions? Her name Shiho and she’s the first friend I made at the school. And I was thinking taking her…

I remember each of them as if they were yesterday, the polar plunge Jack, Flynn, and I did barely a week after I made the list. Being the first week of March in the Midwest we froze our assess off. I immediately regretted showing Jack my list at that point. He saw polar plunge and immediately signed us up for the senior plunge. I swear, who ever thought jumping into a lake in freezing temperatures was absolutely positively insane, and the fact that we have kept this tradition for so many years…
