The VesselRunner-Up in Return of the Night Owl Challenge
This was her mother’s house. She could recognize it by the gaudy colors and the smells that made her wrinkle her nose. She hated the orange carpeted stairs that led up to musty rooms and closets filled with old dresses and battered shoes. In one room, the girl tiptoed around the relics of her mother’s childhood: dolls with uncanny faces and strawberry blonde hair, bright pink jewelry, and an old black and white television. In another room, the one that was hers for the summer, she hid from the paintings of Jesus and the embroidered Bible verses. In the forbidden room, lay baseball cards, bronze trophies, and photographs of a smiling teenage boy.
