With All My Love
1999 ~ 9 years old
The crackle of fireworks echoes around her, a distant, mocking symphony to Annabelle’s hunger. It’s the Fourth of July, but the festive cheer feels like a cruel joke. While other families spread blankets on the park grass, their laughter mingling with the bursts of color in the sky, Annabelle crouches behind a gas station, scavenging for scraps.
A gnawing emptiness consumes her, a hunger that goes beyond the ache in her stomach. It’s a hollow space where warmth and security should be. Her fingers, stiff despite the summer night, dig through the greasy layers of a discarded trash bag.
