Listen, can you hear it?
Can you hear the silence at 4:30am?
The silence that makes her recount all the drama that has gone down these past 4 weeks.
death, arrests, prison time, births, suicide attempts...
Her school work has also added another layer of stress.
3 projects and 2 papers...when does she have time to sleep?
Never.
She wonders how she will get it all done as she walks down the middle of Bull street.
Parkers calls her name.
Coffee and red bull are needed to keep her up though her 8am class.
She reaches Parkers' doors but hesitates. She wonders if her crush's ex is working this morning. That is all she needs.
More drama too hit the fan.
Luckily she isn't working, but her friend is.
Emerson makes her happy. Why? he is the best gay man ever. Always there to make her laugh and forget her troubles for a while.
She makes a beeline for the coffee.
2 cups.
one for her and one for her roommate.
Next stop is to the coolers.
2 red bulls.
one for her and one for her roommate.
24 fluid oz. in total.
All this stress has forced her back into her old vices.
Coffee and Cigarettes.
She picks up a pack of Menthol American Spirits.
This vice only pops up during finals.
3 times out of the year.
She heads home afterwards, watching for traffic.
The sun is starting to rise as she sits outside her dorm building having one last smoke before her day starts again.
