Weekly Contest #343
Melanie takes a seat at the stop to catch the 304 bus that takes her to work, with the downside being she has to transfer from one bus to another to get to work on time. What is an eleven minute car drive for some of her co-workers is about an hour and a half commute for her that takes up an unnecessary amount of time out of her day. With the money she makes, half of those savings go to that hour and a half bus ride, in addition to the transfer. Melanie also doesn’t take lightly to being late either, which is like asking to be late if she’s ...

I trust her to use me as her canvas, and every word is a new story to be told. I’m happy I’m who she...
Weekly Contest #339
“Am I just one of your friends?” I blurted out. It’s been months since him and I have seen each other, and not on mutual terms either, and it’s been a question that has been bothering me for so long that it weighs heavy within my chest. It’s not a question that could be asked in a non-direct way, but I still made an attempt to soften it. “…Or do you foresee a future with me? You and I?” Our relationship isn’t certainly what would be called a formal relationship, although I wish it was. The mere thought that he doesn’t love me the way that I...
