Chairty
picked listlessly at her guitar. She felt so powerless to change
anything about her life. The band For God that she had been apart of
for so long was falling apart. Gabe Jake and Star were fighting
amongst themselves and she felt awful about the whole thing.
Star
and Jake were dating and Gabe had jokingly made a pass at Star whom
he considered his best friend and Jake had lost it nearly punching
Gabe if Charity hadn't stepped in.
She couldn't stand all
the fighting, it reminded her of all the times her family fought, of
all the times her father had hit her mother and then took to hitting
her. Charity was desperate to find some peace so desperate she was
thinking of agreeing to that deal of that Monica woman who was
managing the band.
Charity thought so what was the harm
in writing and singing a few bad to the bone lyrics, it might improve
the bands image. Certainly writing lyrics about a God who'd all but
abandoned her and the group wasn't working. Music sales were
falling and they were no longer number ones a group called Plus One
was.
Charity plucked at the guitar some more some lyrics
forming in her mind. It was all about the longings and wistfulness of
a young girl who had lost faith in herself and God. She turned to the
dark side and found peace relief and hope or thought Charity had she
only made things worse by listening to the whisperings of evil....
