“Romeo and Juliet” by Abby Nanus

Submitted to Contest #257

"Hey, Julie, what would your older sister think of what happened last night?" Romy, my secret boyfriend, smugly asked me as we strolled through the mall. "First off, Emmie's on vacation with her boyfriend. Second, she'd take that as the reason as to why we can't date. Third of all, she'd most likely laugh her butt off at us. Once again, WHY is it that our parents won't let us be a couple?!" I angrily sneered.

“Snow (or, Mr. Sherman Announces his Retirement)” by Abby Nanus

Submitted to Contest #227

Snow. Some love it. Some hate it. As for me? Well, I, Lena Levy, love AND hate snow. That means that my opinion on snow depends on when it falls. For example, since I am an interfaith Jew, it angers me to see snow fall before the fall Jewish holidays conclude. Thankfully, that type of snowfall has never happened in my lifetime.

Oh, and, in my honest opinion, snow should NOT fall...
