Leaving a latte behind

       After five years, he finally walked down my street. I peered out the window, thinking about why he left me. Then, a girl appeared, silky blonde hair and a smile that could stop time. I watched as their footsteps aligned like they were one and could never be separated. We had that, 5 years ago, before he found all my lies hidden beneath him and left.
       Have you ever thought about the future? or maybe the past? Well, I thought of both, but at the same time. That's how my life changed forever. The secrets I kept, the lies I told to protect me, and the memories I left behind.
       It all happened so fast. I never knew that the secrets that are supposed to protect me can hurt me more than they help me.

Everyone already gained their 10 pounds of Christmas cookies. You might be thinking "Yay, my birthday is after Christmas and Hanukah.", well your wrong because now everyone is planning their New Years plans, so don't get too excited. So thanks for list...

She stopped eating lost a few pounds but her mom noticed and stopped her. 5 months later she starts again no one notices! She's thrilled, she becomes thinner and thinner, smaller and smaller, she's losing weight by the minute! She collapses, she wakes up in the hospital with a tube up her nose helping her breath.
