What I wrote yesterday shows just how yesterday was not a good day;

Across the wall from the spot where her best friend later wrote ‘This was her story’, the bench sat. Knowing that almost everyone thought she was looking towards the fountain, she watched the tall grass on the sidewalk move in the breeze. Each day she’d draw the place she wanted to be.

That morning the only image in her mind was cold, the water in the Carvy River by the pass.

On her walk back home it began to shower, by the time she got home she was soaked. She turned the water on in her bath; Becca would not be home for hours because her classes were later. With all her cloths on, she stepped into the icy water clutching something precious and thought only of the place she had wanted to be for so long. On the nightstand by her bed, she left a note that red; “I left you footprints by the eastside river…”
