Snippet #2452973

Feeling saddened by her family's disapproval to her attire and personality and self in general, Amber sighed and sat down on a park bench overlooking the pretty pond, pulling out a tiny journal which she had hidden in a pocket within her skirt which had been hardly noticeable. She read some of the words within it about the past several years. Sighing again, she took the tiny pen and wrote down three words within it and boldened the lettering on the page for emphasis: I miss home. A few ducks flew into the pond and she wondered how they could be so fortunate to fly away at will and how she was unfortunate and incapable of ever truly escaping the scrutiny of her brother and his fiancee.

Looking away from the ducks, she noticed two girls her age, certainly twins, who she could not recall from her past here. Who are they? She wondered, smiling slightly as the softer looking twin. They are pretty... She pushed her thought away as soon as it approached her mind with regret and fear of it being discovered. She wasn't even that certain of her sexuality, but what would her brother ever say to her liking girls? Would he even be okay with that? Afterall, he was not exactly happy to learn about Amber, his prior girlfriend and mother to his daughter... was he? What if he attempted to disown me? With that thought, her eyes darkened again slightly and she pushed the smile off her face, she wouldn't allow herself to like girls.
