She thought to herself.Jane heard footsteps that, sounded like a loud thunder coming up the stairs. She was shaking with fear.Her father burst into the room laughing he said, “Jane I know you are in here. Come out, come out wherever you are.” Jane was shaking and held on to her bear tighter to restrain herself from crying. Jane whispered softly and said “God please do not let him find me.”

Jane heart was racing like the beat of a drum. She is holding on to her bear and beside her was a knife. Jane was tired of being sexually abused by her father.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register.

So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
