Orange Peel

By Jacquelynn Smith

I'll never be the good guy, the innocent one. I'll never make the right decisions or show up on time. I've never been that girl since the day I was born. So why did you think time would change me? Make me responsible and calm. If anything, it has made me rash and irresponsible.

Still coping with her new reality, Elisa enrolls in college, in hopes that this time around will be better. As if another year in purgatory will fix everything, or at least be a distraction. It's nothing like pretending and meeting new people to blind you from your problems. That is until her lust-filled gaze lands on one particular individual that sends Elisa spiraling. A small connection one can't simply put into words will change everything.

Elisa is now once again torn between who she's become and who shes pretending to be. How will she ever survive?

Pretending won't be as easy as she hoped. After all, life never goes as planned.
