Spill By: Aubrey BrouillettePrologue

Drip… drip… drip…

Thinking, all I'd been doing was thinking lately, about life, about love, about everything.

Drip…

Why him? Why now?

Drip

Everything was changing. I had to make a decision. What to do, what to do?

Drip… drip…

Ahh! Why wouldn't that incessant dripping stop? I needed to concentrate.

Drip… drip… drip...

I got up and turned the kitchen sink's nozzle off. Awe much better.

THUMP THUMP THUMP! I guessed my roommate was up. God she was loud.

"Sophie did you make any coffee?" she said as she sauntered into the kitchen, her hair thrown into a messy bun. She was still dressed in her pj's.

I mumbled something incoherent and pointed to the full pot of coffee sitting exactly where I had left it.

As she poured a cup she said, "You know, you've been really quite lately. What's up?"

As I looked at my new roommate a flood of words came to my lips. None of which I was ready to spill. Yet.
