Memoirs of a Walgreens Photo Specialist
Names have been changed to protect the identity of those involved. I had been working for Walgreens for a little over a year before my view of the world was shattered. While I have had to deal with shoplifters, I had never even seen a gun before this. Not in real life. That is unless you count those of police officers and security guards. There is also the pump action BB gun my father had. That gun couldn’t do any real harm. I’m sure it would hurt if you got shot by it, but it wouldn’t draw blood. My cousin had one. He once “accidently” shot his brother in the butt with it. I remember him pulling his pants down, outside, on the front porch. His friends were gathered around him, looking at his naked butt to make sure he wasn’t bleeding. He wasn’t. We all had a good laugh.

The Death of Class
Too bad I couldn’t have bottled that weekend with my boyfriend, Jake, and carried it around in my pocket for the next month. Every day I convinced myself that either he had forgotten about me and was happily back home with his wife trying to procreate, or he had met another girl as dumb as I was and had forgotten me.

And Of All The Things I Was Looking For.
I was standing in the middle of the room with my heart in my hand. I gently caressed all my wounds of a time past when I never knew what love was. I felt emotional, as I sensed gentle hands caressing my heart like a guardian angel. Tears fell from my eyes as I looked into his warm blue-green eyes and finally kissed him.

I’m staring at the bathroom mirror. Trying to find the girl that use to be inside, but I keep drawing a blank. My freshly dyed black hair is hanging in chunks around my face. I could brush it, but that would take energy that I currently don’t have.
