The fact that one of these ladies was my mom made me particularly sad because my mom is beautiful. And she’s always on a diet. Sometimes, my dad calls her beautiful, but she cannot hear him.

He was the boy that made mix tapes with themes and hand-colored covers until the day he hit my sister and stopped crying.

And I never felt that good in my life. But I also felt bad because I saw her naked without her permission.

And even if she says no, and really means yes, then quite frankly she's playing games and isn't worth the price of dinner.

I look at people holdings hands in the hallways, and I try to think how it all works. At the school dances, I sit in the background, and I tap my toe, and I wonder how many couples will dance to ‘their song.’ In the hallways, I see the girls wearing the guys’ jackets, and I think about the idea of property. And I wonder if anyone is really happy.

It was the kind of kiss that made me know that I was never so happy in my whole life.

I am really in love with Sam, and it hurts very much.
