Tell Me What You See

the whole day getting ready; trying on dozens of dresses to get the right fit for the occasion. As evening neared, she found the windy cobblestone path which was dotted with a stream of peddles that lead to Bluemer 's mansion. Before she arrived, she found a bird perched in an old oak tree. The bird said to her, “Leave my little darling, leave my little darling, for hell is full of charm and will cost you much harm.” She turned to the bird and said, “Bird up in the tree, tell me what you see.” The bird replied, “I see a man with a deceitful plan.” She did not come much farther when she saw another bird standing on a maple branch. The bird said to her, “Leave my little darling, leave my little darling, for hell is full of charm and will cost you much harm.” She turned to the bird and said, “Bird up in the tree, tell me what you see.” The bird replied, ““I see a man with a deceitful plan.” She walked once more and saw a third bird looking down from a birch tree. The bird said to her, “Leave my little darling, leave my little darling, for hell is full of charm and will cost you much…

his first car. It’s a used 1998 Toyota Civic. Even though it is old and shitty, Tommy loves his car more than he loves dad or mom or me. Mom took a photography class at the community college last year. A month before our trip, she made Tommy wash a section of the living room wall. He washed a square about as tall and as wide as him.

Just ignore it,“ one of his friends suggested to him. “It's honesty not that vital,“ another one of his friend told him. Brandon exclaims,“ I don't know why you guys like Halloween anyway. It's becoming old. Tom, why can't you just read and study instead of going around the neighborhood instead of going with me?“ “I like Halloween. It’s fascinating isn't it,…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As Jonas and Gabriel tried to keep up to reach the unusual sound that was coming from above, he couldn't help but notice that the planes were starting to come back. All of a sudden, Jonas’s face changes from a light shade of apricot to complete paleness as his eyes glance up the sky. Only to see a banner hanging from the plane, “CHANGE STARTS NOW”. ******************* “Did you see that Gabe”, Jonas whispered…

moment, what looked like hundreds of people; actually only a few, but the fact that I've never done this before had me trembling in my knees. My palms started sweating, and my breathing began to shallow. I have to prove them wrong, but could I? I won’t let them tell me these negative things anymore, not anymore anyways. Before I had the chance to back out; the amplified ringing of the buzzer echoed through my head. It was the beginning of a chilly November, and the announcements for…

stopped at the flessbe golf course. She had spoken to the guys playing, they gave her the once over and moved on. No hook ups day. Not that was what she wanted but no men seemed interested in relationships. She had given up on her grandmother’s saying about cows and milk. There was always free milk down the street now.

which was strange because they’re never unlocked. It was so dark inside of the school that I couldn’t even see my own hand. It smelt like dirty socks with a hint of roses, but that was the natural smell. It was difficult trying to find my locker, so I ended up just turning the flashlight on my phone on. When ending up finding my locker, I tried my combination, but it wouldn’t open with whatever I tried. I turned my flashlight off, getting ready to leave, but then I heard something sliding…
