I came home late and my mom grounded me. “It’s not my fault Maisons mom let me play video games late” I explained. “I told you to remind her to bring you home,” mom said. I went to my room and cried. I tried sneaking out, mom caught me. I’ll be ok, I thought, and played the Switch under my bed. Mom took that too. Now I’m bored. I’ll just dream of playing games. Mom can’t steal my dreams. I fell asleep. Darn it, mom was there too, stealing my games in my dreams. I’ll just throw a tantrum!

Don’t say Anything
“Hush children, don’t say anything,” Sandy whispered. Her husband came home in a drunken rage again, and she knew if he heard them the fists would start flying. She couldn’t explain another black eye when dropping the kids off at school. “Kids, now,” she shouted when Tim approached the trip wire. The kids pulled the wire and Tim fell into a bed of nails, dying instantly. Sandy disposed of the wire, then told the kids to say he fell, it was an accident. And that’s the same story she repeated to the police when she called them.

135 — Phase 1
"Know what your bitchy neighbor said, Joan?" Joan turned away from the stove. "No, Alexa. You mean Missy Hernandez?" "Who else!" Alexa said, displaying Missy's picture. "You know more than anyone the truth never catches up to the lies. She's told a doozy about you this time."

Standing Still
There are very few moments in life where time truly stands still. When your breath is taken from your chest and your body hangs weightless in that moment. Just long enough for it to stay with you from that day onwards. Deep in the red sands of the Australian Outback, I found that moment and clung to it forever.
