Something to think about...

This is a story about four people: Everybody,Somebody,Anybody, and Nobody. There was an important job to be done and Everybody was asked to do it. Everybody was sure Somebody would do it. Anybody could've done it, but Nobody did it. Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody's job. Everybody thought Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn't do it. It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when actually Nobody asked Anybody.

Trip To Japan: An expressive piece that demonstrates correct dialogue form

I sat on my bed staring at the phone that lay by my side trying to muster up the courage to call my best friend and let her in on the bad news. She’s been my best friend since forever. We’ve been through everything together, even remarkably her ex-boyfriend Justin. She loved him so much but the guy cheated on her. She was torn but broke up with him and the only way to heal her broken heart was for her and me to go on this trip to Japan. Oh god. The guilt grew like weeds in a garden.  I took a deep breath then slowly, mostly unconsciously, I dialed Cecilia’s number. It rang once, then twice as I twirled a loose thread in my jeans that would surely rip a hole in them if I twirled it any tighter.

            “Hello?”

            “CC, hey.” To my dismay, my voice was shaky. I squeezed my eyes shut afraid to continue talking, afraid that the news would slip foolishly from my tongue and shatter her heart, and most likely our friendship.

            “Danika? Helloo?” She sounded impatient as she always did when I didn’t just get to the point.

            Finally, after several long minutes, it seemed, I said, “You know that trip we’ve been talking about and planning for? The one to Japan…”

            “Yeah of course. Duh. So when are we going to be able to hang out and go shopping and oh my goodness Danika we could get matching boots!” She sounded so happy it made my heart break in two. I took another deep breath still twirling the small thread.

            “Cc, I’m so sorry but I’m not taking you anymore.” As soon as the sentence left my lips I felt like throwing up from guilt.  The thread finally broke exposing a small portion of my knee. My heart raced ready to hear the click of the phone when she hung up on me. I knew she wouldn’t do that but the tension of the moment dared me to believe otherwise.

            “But, why not me? Who are you taking then?” I could hear the tears and the fury in her voice.

            “Because Cc, I’m not okay?  I’m taking someone else; I’ve changed my mind ok? Does that answer your question?” I clenched my jaw holding back the tears and my lunch.

            She was quiet for a second, and then replied. “No,” She paused. “You didn’t tell me who you were taking.”

That’s when I hung up, suddenly more nauseous than I’ve ever been. I was not about to tell her that the person I was taking was Justin.

To Bunny...

Poor Bunny
Poor innocent,beautiful Bunny.
How cruel the world is to you.    
You didn't see those dogs coming
Mutts so large and so fierce...
Even I would be as afraid 
As you are

Look at their faces;
Grim,evil smiles
Like this is a sport that
They were about to win.
One they too often enjoy.

Your heart pounds as you try
To run, Bunny,
Not knowing when alas
It will be your final
Moments when their jaws
Close up around you.

Then they'll bite harder,
Expecting you to
Cry out,
Only anticipating when you do.

They have no care as to where
You were headed
Or whether you had a
Family or not.

They don't think because they don't care.

After you, they won't stop

I'm so sorry poor Bunny.
Poor innocent, beautiful Bunny
How cruel the world is
To you.
