“Someone” by Katelyn Riley

Submitted to Contest #4

A sophomore with no friends. Well she had friends, you see. Past-tense . She lost them all, almost at once. They moved schools, they drifted away, they found new addictions, or simply had enough.

Submitted to Contest #4

Goddammit. Why was it so fucking bright in here? Why are the fucking blinds open? What fucking time is it anyways?The clock next to the bed glares an angry 8:00 a.m. and the alarm has been shrilling for at least an hour. Well shit. Now I am late for work. Why does school have to start so early? Those little shits are going to be way more than I can handle today.
