THURSDAY: Little Baby and the Ceiling
Hazel and Greg had brought their new baby home, and with pride placed her in the crib. The baby smiled and laughed, her pudgy face red. She was laughing because of the ceiling.

TUESDAY: The Coin
Anna's face was on a coin. And she couldn't believe it. Her profile mirrored her exact same face, even how she smiled and closed her eyes. She held the coin in the palm of her hand, tracing her finger on her nose, her lips, her chin, even her cheekbones. She would have to thank the [...]

Serene was bizarre. A good kind of bizarre. A beautiful bizarre. The way she dressed represented her different tastes and style. Her striking green-blue hair. Her neon clothes.

THURSDAY: Could See the Wind
Gloria could see the wind. Because as the clouds moved across the sky, they became delicate wisps of vapor. Streaking across the atmosphere in a beautiful spectacle. One that Gloria could slightly not comprehend. How could the clouds be creating such shapes? Shapes that were slightly unformed. As if a great cloud had dispersed [...]
