We love you, but...

“Hi mom. Hi Dad. I have something to sh…”

“Before you start dear, we just want to let you know that we love you and have your best interest at heart. Since the day we laid our eyes on you, we knew you would be a special child.”

“What’s this about?” she says somewhat surprised.

“We want you out! Now!”

Everybody else has a life

“Hello… Hello. Is anybody in here?”
She wanders about the dim lit, seemingly abandoned room, as it resonates with every call she makes.

She stumbles over some of B’s books, sees D's cell phone he left to avoid calls, the work BC was stressing over, Seeker’s spelling list… She realizes someone’s there, hovering over a computer, reading/commenting on Aurora. BashmentBass.

Pointless Conversations

He walks past several times a day, everyday, glancing in her direction, trying to make eye contact. She sees, but glues her eyes to the screen.
He realizes he’s not getting her attention and walks over... “Hey Q-D-P-I-E!”
“No creativity…” she thinks to herself.
He likes what he sees. He wants what he sees, but he doesn’t stand a chance.
