She stared into the empty darkness
The gazillion stars twinkling in the sky
The streetligts glowing brightly
The yellow dots of moving vehicles
She thought
Scibble. Doodle. Think.
Think.
Plink.
Forty-nine percent.
Crush.
Crumple.
Smack. Whack.
Ouch.
A failure.
They glared at her, weird freak.
The floor was the only thing she
glued her eyes upon.
A black snowflake.
He slammed the bottle into the sink.
Screamed at her like a monster.
Beat her already-bruised arms.
That familiar stench...of beer.
A broken family.
She stared into the mournful blackness
The gazillion stars twinkling in the sky
The streetligts glowing brightly
The yellow dots of moving vehicles
She let go.
Fallen.
