RE: An Experiment in Empathy - 5 SBD to the Winner(s)
You see the man with the shard of glass was a father to a lovely 15 year old girl, top of her group in the classroom and on the sport field.
Two days before her 16th birthday Jenny never made it home, her father Bruce (man with the shard of glass) soon grew tired of the local police and their reluctant efforts to help locate his daughter, and took matters into his own hands.
Weeks went by, but Bruce tirelessly carried on searching.
Eventually he found his daughter in a crack house where she was being forced to work as a prostitute. Unfortunately, his despondent daughter had just injected herself with a lethal dose of heroin - because she just could not take it anymore. She collapsed just before she could reach her fathers arms for the very last time, breaking a divider window with her fall.
Her father rushed to her side and cradled her in his arms for some time, before picking up a shard of glass lying next to her.
Knowing who the kingpin was he traced him to the local bar where he would normally hang out that time of day....
Hey breezy! How are you doing sweetie?
Yup, the temporary insanity of a parent losing a child is definitely something people can empathize with ;)
Hey you awesome Lady!!!
I have been great and healthy...
And then sick while trying to stay buoyant in a pile of crap...
And now things are fabulous ~ even more so after hearing from you!
How is life on your side?
Well something like that would definitely push me over the edge! I wouldn't even mind going to prison for it, even if I have to be a bitch called Buba's little spoon....
