Her Worst Fear Realized
Posted on February 10, 2018 Leave a Comment
She wasn’t a respectable woman, but she was needed. It felt good to be needed. The love she desired remained elusive. An encounter with a man’s temporary affection would have to do. Why did the officials find it necessary to publicly shame her when caught? Her self-condemnation cloaked her day in and day out. No […]

The high clouds and powerful winds announced the storm’s approach. My young children and I took the opportunity to enjoy our last day of sunshine before being cooped up inside.
