Life's Little Twists

Joey Potter walked on the dock as she looked out at the water. She sighed in the air and picked up a few stones. She skipped a few and then sat at the edge. Thinking about how her life went to hell in only 5 months. Everything she thought that would be the same changed. Everything she loved, left. She felt all -alone.

As she looked out, watching the sun fully rise over the horizon, she felt tears burn the corners of her eyes. Everything was messed up. Everything. Joey held her head in her hands and let the sobs come. She couldn't stop all the pain and heartache that was coursing through her body. 5 months of hell. And now, she landed deep into the devil domain. She remembered everything as if it all happened yesterday. Every detail, every feeling every emotion.

"Joey, I'll love you forever. Remember that, ok?"

"I love you too Pace. I love you too."

***************************

Those words were nothing now. Were they? They meant nothing, and they are worth nothing. Just past feelings that were meant to go away. Meant to fade in the abyss of life. Nothing was the same. Nothing ever felt more real to her. She finally reached rock bottom. And there was no turning back. No picking up the pieces and gluing them together. No saying sorry, and thinking that's supposed to fix anything. Nothing will fix the mess that she was in. Nothing.

"Joey, come inside. It's cold, and it's starting to rain!" Bessie yelled from the house. Joey looked back and nodded. She silently got up and took one more look at the water before going inside, only to stay in her room and think. Think and cry is what she has been doing for so long. As she went in the house and went to her room, she leaned against the headboard of her bed and all the memories of the past months came rushing back to her. Everything that she wanted to forget. Everything that she wished would go away just snuck back on her and showed her that she couldn't escape reality.

5 months ago, everything that could go wrong, did go wrong. 5 months ago.....
