Georgina

Jessica Papst

For Georgina, life was hell.
Really mad
Pull yourself together Georgina
Yeah right, they were really helping.
"Georgina, you're a very angry girl"
They didn't understand.
Yes, right Papa, whatever you say Papa.
It always startled Georgina when she did that.
Nonna seemed to think she was terribly sinful...
Quickly regaining her composure and dismissing all cowardly thoughts
Georgina focussed on stepping closer to the edge.
