Farrah

Standing outside a two-story house with perfect rose bushes placed along the front lawn, a stone walkway lights up from the most expensive lights I’ve ever seen. I watch as Professor Prescott parks his black shiny car inside the left side of the garage.

Thunder cracks from above and rain pelts into my thin summer dress. It’s cold, the droplets feeling like ice daggers. My nostrils flare watching him, my heart pounding as it cracks and bleeds at my feet.

My chest feels tight like I can’t breathe. This heartbroken feeling is not worth the trouble I went through with this man. I wasted my freedom on him when I could have been with someone else that actually cared about me. Look at this house. It’s family material with its perfect lawn, and perfect street, and perfect neighborhood.

I was played. The common teacher-student romance just became my reality.

Forcing myself to move, I head toward the big house.
