The Key to Peace
From the time she was a little girl, all Adelaide ever wanted to do was be a singer. At two years old, she would stand in front of the mirror and belt out the lyrics to her favorite songs, mimicking the dance moves she saw in music videos and using an old hair brush as a stand-in microphone. She dreamed of being a star, touring the world to perform in front of her millions of loyal fans. There was nothing that would get in the way of her ultimate goal.
No One’s Curse
Leiany was walking through the mall of her small Pennsylvania town, searching for a new dress to wear out on a date. It was her first time going out since ending things with Alan, and she was going to look hotter than ever before. Her hair was done, her nails were painted. All she needed was the perfect, eye-popping dress.
She had been to three stores already, but nothing was perfect. She wandered into another, munching on a pretzel as she searched through the racks. Her eyes fell upon a slim, red latex halter. That was it, the dress to make this new guy fall in love with her.
