			<description>It was crowded and stuffy inside. Shoulder against shoulder, Fanny and Julie pushed their way across the walkway. It took them a while to find seats. When they finally sat down the lights in the middle dimmed.&amp;nbsp;&quot;Oh, it's starting!&quot; Julie patted Fanny's arm excitedly.&amp;nbsp;The masked trainer step..</description>

			<description>&amp;ldquo;You have lies upon your lips.&amp;rdquo;I said as I held my hand against the wall,Begging for supportAs the world reeled around me.How far must I dig into your conspicuous lies,To find that you were exactly as I thought of you,In my most melancholy, nasty, mean times.

			<title>Four</title>
			<description>Fanny woke up to a wet pillow and a screaming headache.&amp;nbsp;She didn't know what time it was, and didn't want to. The light streaming through the crack of the hastily pulled together curtains pierced her eyes, causing tears to form. She quickly wiped&amp;nbsp;them away. The house was quiet. Only the so..</description>

			<title>Three</title>
			<description>The stars winked at each other, as if they shared a collective secret. The sky took on a purplish, navy blue hue. The ride back felt smooth; Fanny felt as if she was gliding along glass. The warm breeze ruffled her hair, lifting the brown strands, as if to let her fly. The kitchen lights were still ..</description>

			<title>The Real Loners</title>
			<description>Loners, those who had to go through four years of miserable solitude, who lingered behind the pack, waiting for a hint of recognition, someone to reach out and pull them in. For some it never happened. They pretended like it didn't matter, smiling when others smile, but the&amp;nbsp;emptiness&amp;nbsp;is st..</description>

			<title>Promised Date</title>
			<description>The sunshine was so bright, burning the thin layer of armor she had wrapped around her last night. She pushed aside the black curtain of hair and peeked at her night stand. Seven ten. Too early to wake up, but too late to go back to sleep. She'll have to go out again today, for that date he had prom..</description>

Fanny covered Julie's mouth before she can grab their attention. &quot;Julie! They don't look so happy.&quot;&quot;Ah, what's there to be scared of?

The&amp;nbsp;crickets&amp;nbsp;sang softly but harmoniously somewhere in the field. The wind tiptoed into the bedroom, and wisped Fanny's hair around. &quot;Darn, I'll have to brush it all a..</description>
