Really Bad Pastiche


“I cheated on him” she screamed “I can’t believe I cheated on him”

“It’s no big deal” Sarah replied lazily “nothing bad will happen”

“Do you know what people say about cheaters” she screamed hysterically. She closes her eyes as the thoughts of all the horrible names begin to bring back the nausea. Sarah rises from her chair across the room and glides with ease to where Amelia is wobbling. Sarah wraps her arms around her ailing friend, placing Amelia’s head on her shoulder

She whispered in her ear “everything will be alright”

Amelia flops her head into her hands and begins to softly weep. Sarah rocks her gently as the first rays of the rising sun peek through the window. It’s a new day.
