They never wanted it to end this way. There was no way to foresee the consequences of their actions. And now, someone was awaiting death, blood bubbling at the corners of his mouth. All that because of a silly prank.
How could you prank Helen like that just after her parents passing? You know Kevin your more insensitive than your father! His smile drop as she storm out the room leaving him alone with this taught. Was he just like his drunk insensitive father?
I dialed your number….
my hands repeating something they’ve known all too well in the past

Ohara met her at a cafe. He had to report that he had learned nothing. “Are you certain she hasn’t just gone off on a trip somewhere?”
“My sister is not like that, she wouldn’t do this on a whim, as a prank! She planned her trip to Japan for months, down to the last detail. See wouldn’t just disappear like this! I’m telling you, something has happened to her!”

Lolly, always desperate for a laugh, resorted to the same pranks he had played in 9th grade which just weren’t funny to a guy in three thousand dollar suit and an aspiring philosopher. Jess had become a first class tosser. He made more money trading in an hour than Lolly did in a week but he had taken on a trio of girlfriends and a cocaine habit that left him as skint as I was. And me? Well I was a universal disappointment, to my parents, to my teachers and especially to my girlfriend. Despite it all we made a couple of genuine attempts to rekindle the friendship. We went to the Imperial and drowned ourselves in tequila. By ten we had all made excuses to leave.
“Dont do unto others what you dont want done to yourself” she observed good-naturedly, shaking off the shells from her hair.

“Very funny. By which I mean ‘not funny’,” I found myself saying to the cat. Naturally he would perch himself on the one shelf I couldn’t reach.

This is a prank. How do you do?
losing definition of myself and wondering if it’s okay, screeching top down hair whipping high school legend on the highway is what i never was
She was always unsure about their relationship, could he be the type to pull an elaborate prank.
“This is going to be the best prank ever” said Matt. Matt was a tall sandy hair kid that i had spent most of my child hood with.
