That Damn Dresser

Almost twenty-two years ago the brown eye girl was given advice. So far she had lived by it. She had found herself trying to live up to the person who told her the advice. But how can she keep up with that after all this time? Shouldn't she live up to her own standards instead of theirs? The perfect best friend was right to give her that advice way back then after her father passed away; but now it seems it might not be right for her anymore. Now the perfect best friend is gone now too and she is right back to who she was way back when. The brown eye girl finds herself back to kicking that damn dresser as if she was still that angry little eight year old girl.
