Trixie's day- Love

“You’re leaving?” I frown at my little sister Lolly then look at my watch. “Yep! I’m excited, Ethan’s driving me to Harper’s house and Paisley is going to be there too.” replies Lolly texting on her phone. She giggles.It was only noon and she was hanging out with her friends all day yesterday too! That's too much friend time if you ask me.“What’s so funny?” I ask, trying to peak over her shoulder.Lolly moves before I can read everything but I saw the name Liam.“You’re texting Liam?!” I yelp.“NOOOOO!” Lolly says blushing. “I’m texting Harper ...

Street Dogs Pt.2

2 Days ago:I haven't seen Cooper in a while. I’m getting worried and nervous he changed. What if he became those dogs who become mean and nasty. Those ones who don’t trust ANYONE! What if he forgets about me? What if Cooper thinks his life is so bad he should just give up and stop being the nice bright light he is? What if…I had to stop thinking about the what ifs. I need to stop thinking about that and take action. How can I recuse him? OH NO. What if he doesn't want to leave?! Some strays WANT to get caught, because you get fed. I don’t kn...

Mira and the Journal

Author's note: 🤫 I may have A.I to make this. Okay I did but don't you think it did a good job? Please comment on how good you think the A.I did! (I was just playing around with A.I and made this but I usually don't use A.I) Mira had always loved the attic in her grandmother’s house. It wasn’t scary the way her cousins claimed—it was a place of discovery. There were boxes of faded photographs, trunks of winter coats that smelled faintly of cedar, and shelves crammed with books no one had opened in decades. On a rainy afternoon, with nothing...

Street Dogs Pt.1

Author's note: This is not how I usually write so please bear with me. Also Pt. 2 will come out soon! 🤭 This was my life before she took me in: 10 Days ago:I always gotta run fast before I get caught. Life alone is not very eventful. Unless you count running from humans all your life eventful. Or dodging cars and hiding all your life fun. To me? Life is boring. Super boring. For me life is running and stealing food from trash or finding some on the floor. When some brag about their lives I just ignore them. Do I wish I had their lives? Mayb...

Trixie's Day- Always Second

“Hey Trixie!” waves Izzy.“Hey Izzy! Hey Minty!” I reply while stepping behind the counter.“We got a rush today so we need to lock in.” Minty says shrugging. Her real name is Araminta but we call her Minty for short.“Oh okay.” I say then get to work. Then a memory floods back in. About a week ago I was doing a shift here and I met a lady. Later I found out that was my moms best friend! It took some time but I got to know her family well. Since my moms friend (Ms. Linda) stole most of my day, my mom made it up to me and said I didn’t have to w...

Late With The Cake!

“Now what?” asks Summer. Everyone's silent not knowing how to answer that.“Where too late.…” mutters Autumn. When they came to pick up a cake for Summer and Autumn’s brother’s birthday party, the bakery was closed.“WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DOOOO?!” cries April dramatically as she lifts her arm above her head and falls into Summer’s arms.“Sheesh you don’t have to be so dramatic. And it's not that serious." Autumn mutters while rolling her eyes.“Aaaaaaahhh!” April wails ignoring Autumn.“HELP ME!” mouths Summer to June.June sighs, “Okay, look April...
