A Rainy Day

Raindrops fell against the windows of Raven’s black Nissan Altima.    ‘What am I doing?’ She thought to herself as she watched droplets collect on her windshield.   It was eleven o’clock at night and she should’ve been at home getting the eight hours of sleep she required simply to function as a human being.… Continue reading A Rainy Day

Who Would Have Thought

 A walking wrecking ball, who loved to party, and a no-nonsense businesswoman, a neat freak, and a complete mess.

One Hundred Homes

“Would you still love me if I was a murder?” Alexis asked, walking through the front door of her home.   Sarah, Alexis’s wife, poked her head through the serving window of the kitchen.   “Depends on who your victims were.” Sarah said with a shrug.    Kicking off her shoes, Alexis tossed her keys… Continue reading One Hundred Homes
