Them Girls
As Brittany left her therapist's office with a whole lot of nothing but soggy tissues and mascara-stained cheeks, she walked past a stationary store. Something caught her eye, a little black book. In today's counseling session, her doctor suggested a journal to write down her feelings each night so they would get out of her head, and onto paper, possibly allowing her to sleep for the first time in months.

Cursed
Do you believe in curses? I didn’t use to, but that was before we found the money. And the body. It was so hot that day, the kind of heat that makes you irritable. Someone that has never been to Florida in August might not understand, but for three unsupervised boys, the heat was only going to lead to trouble. Clayton lived one street over and he was an asshole. I didn’t normally hang out with him but it was summer and my usual crew was on vacation. I wished I was on vacation somewhere cold, like Alaska. Mark lived across the street from me and I considered him a friend sometimes. He was chubby and a total nerd, but a nice kid. I drifted towards him when there was no one better around. I guess I’m an asshole too, but he was the responsible sort of kid my parents wanted me to hang out with. What teenager wants that? Looking back on it though, it’s surprising that he was the one that opened the gates of hell.

Now I See
Legend has it you don't choose the book, the book chooses you", the pretty tour guide stated as she caressed the Perspex case containing the black manuscript. Her manicured nails tapped the box slightly as she scanned the tourists faces and noticed their attention waning. "Seek its mysteries if you dare" she concluded, turning to continue the tour. Liam inspected the contents of the case; his interest piqued. Julietta had woven a tale of intrigue and mystery around the innocuous historical volume. He stroked the Perspex with his finger, subconsciously expecting a physical reaction fitting an object from the realm of the supernatural. Liam chuckled as he shook his head as if to rid himself of the superstitious nonsense that had alighted upon him. Quickly he made his way to join his companions.

Little Black Book $20,000 and A Woman
Little Black Book $20,000 And A woman Long ago in the midst of time....in Grover, North Carolina. This was a place where families thrived, achieved, and looked out for one another but, there was one particular woman who looked out for everyone around, did not have a bad bone in her. Ms. Betsy, this sweet woman was the apple of everyone’s eye, and she is my inspiration for this story. Allow me to introduce this wonderful woman, Ms. Betsy, 97 was born and raised in Grover, North Carolina, she lived with her parents and it was here where she was taught how to take care of livestock, and anything else that could move. She was not a lazy person; this woman was a “get it done person” and believed in doing what needed to be done for herself as well as her family. A very loving woman I may say, she saw good in every person that interacted with her no matter what the person was going through.
