rarely could sandy sleep any longer ––– and it had nothing to do with frequent arguments and other happenings in the shepard household. SLEEPLESS NIGHTS HAD BECOME THE NORM FOR DISPLACED YOUNG WOMAN. no place and no thing to call her own. friends lost, prices paid for mistakes made. AN OUTCAST AMONGST HER OWN SOCIAL STANDING. cast out by the greasers ; never a soc. a lack of forgiveness from everyone around her, parents included. regardless of her attempts to fix her past mistakes, it was becoming clear as day that doing so was an impossible feat. a mountain she could not climb. never a quitter, but the idea was more tempting now than ever before.
outside air was frigid, knees drawn to chest as she sat out on the shepard porch with bottle of alcohol in hand. HADN’T TOUCHED A DROP SINCE GIVING BIRTH, but now seemed good a night as any. NONE OF IT MATTERED, REGARDLESS THAT ALCOHOL HAD GOTTEN HER IN THIS SITUATION IN THE FIRST PLACE. she had nothing left to lose in her eyes ––– so why not, right? vodka sipped from the bottle, nose scrunches in disgust at the taste. it was easy to forget how putrid it tasted without something to mix it with after all the time that had passed. caught in the act, she nearly chokes before swallowing upon spotting tim nearby. ❛ sorry. i didn’t mean to ––– ❜ DIDN’T MEAN TO WHAT? ❛ wanna share? ❜
