    I was walking back from dropping off Sapphire and I kicked it on the street. I was not looking for this. It was looking for me. That was when I knew something had to change. Sapphire and I had gotten into a fight. I don’t remember about what, and she had stormed off. Had marched…

    She woke me up kissing me. I looked at her with a smile and saw Sapphire’s face. I closed my eyes and hated myself, hating that I had for just one second thought it was Bekah. Shadow reminded himself Bekah was gone. There was no Bekah. We pulled back the blanket curtain that hung from…

    Here we are again. Another blog blast. The last one was Hollow Man. Told the story of my ex-girlfriends and the impact they had on me. What they turned me into and what I learned from them. But awhile ago, I did a series of blogs called The New Girl. Months ago now, I think,…
