It's been about three days since I went to Ariana's house. We haven't been back to each other's house yet, but today we're going out to a spot of mine where I usually go to sit and think, nobody ever goes down there, so I decided to go there.

I twisted the copper knob on the heating spindle. “Mom? Are you up yet?” Peeling back the shower curtain; I stopped. A cold chill rocketed down my spine one vertebrae at a time An unwelcomed metallic taste on my tongue as I look over the once crystal clear blue liquid now a dark watered down red. A short, disemboweled woman lifelessly
