Love
We’ve Got You. Content Warning.
October 16, 1999, 10:30 a.m. 15 year old Drew Parker is sitting on a bench at the park around the corner from his house. He is waiting for his friends Giovannie, Bryan and Amanda to come meet him so they can go have breakfast and then go to the mall together. As he sits waiting for his trio of friends to arrive Drew reaches back and carresses the bruise on his lower back. At least I fought back this time, Drew thought to himself. Once again my mom’s drunken and worthless boyfriend gave me a drunken beatdown yesterday, but this time I fought back and that’s why I’m in so much pain today.

The Enchanted Forest's echoes
The Enchanted Forest's echoes Deep within the forest, where sunlight was unable to break through the heavy overgrowth, there was a location that people who ventured to approach spoke in low voices. It was known as the Enchanted Forest; it was a place where whispers appeared to linger long after the wind had subsided and shadows danced in the twilight.

The Eaves, Dropping
Jason had heard it from his father, who probably heard it from his grandfather or someone else in the family that he never met: “One man’s ceiling is another man’s floor.” Maybe he really did not understand the meaning of that completely – is it about levels, achievement, success, he thought? No, he was not sure, but he was entertained by what he was hearing. And it all came to him just above his head.
