Wild thoughts

"I gotta tell you something but you have to promise not to be mad...or judge." Latifah locked her hands into one another and pleaded with me. With an eye roll I nodded in agreement so she could spill her secret. "Okay, do you know the new guy that just moved in downstairs? I just got his number!!" She squeeked pulling out the crumpled piece of paper she wrote his number on. I shot her a "What's the big deal look" "Darcy's man lives here somewhere too I think.

The director personally reached out to me stating that I am the best person to do it. Not only because I graduated top of my class, but also because of the successful career I have paved for myself. His words, I just agree, I am fabulous! I turn toward my homeless patient, he's sweaty, anxious, and rightfully so. Up until yesterday he was a mere lost soul, wandering the streets, r...

Weekly Contest #358

"My daughter, Cory the dancer!" I tried forcing a smile paired with excitement, but it felt so hard to say I nearly choked. "Ugh! What will my friends think when they hear about that!" The mirror reflected back at me a disgusted face. "She comes from such an upscale family! My mother's a surgeon, one of the best in the city of Richmond, my father is a doctor and one of the founders of the Corriander memorial hospital. I am a psychiatrist, her dad's a science professor at one of the leading colleges in the city. Both his parents are lawyers, ...
