You Are Darkness
You move gracefully as you saunter through the night. The moon is full above you while the stars are black. It should be unsettling but the absence of the stars doesn’t affect you like it has the others. While they moan, almost in pain, crouching over to clutch their stomachs, you pull your shoulders back, chest out, and walk swiftly with your head held high.

They're All Silent
The possibilities had been endless. With a boyfriend who had been the CEO of a major airline company, Phillip had been poised to spend his summer gallivanting all over the world. From Boston where he’d lived, he could have flown to Iceland to visit Thingvellir National Park. After, he’d have hopped on the next flight to England to see all the historical places in London. True, he would have been alone for most of the journey as Roland was a very important man whose free time was limited. Still, he would have been able to join Phillip for part of the trip, and he would have had no problem funding the whole thing too.
