A Memory - by Aleenah

A Memory
The anger and disappointment of my regretful memory kept showing itself in my dreams. It always made me feel foolish.

They were usually underneath the cushions of our couches in the living room. As I proceeded to put the thread through the small hole of the needle, I kept getting soft aches. In the process, the needle and my left hand kept colliding into each other. I gave slight screams each time it happened. I was sweating with frustration and anger.

After minutes of agony, I gave up regretting those moments. I still have a scar from that memory. I will continually live to regret and be embarrassed by what had happened.
