by T. Staph
Eighteen-year-old Patricia Alexander is trying to find herself. She can never stay single, so every second she has a different man to make herself feel better.

She still tries to hide the fact that Brian is her baby’s daddy but in the end, they are both revealed. This revealing situation pushes Trish to run from reality. After running for so long, she finally decides to settle down, but the guy she settles down with reminds her of someone she used to know — herself!

Patricia, his secret stalker yet the most attractive girl in the entire high school, sees him promenading the halls right past her classroom, and she exits out the back door of her trigonometry room to follow him on down the hall. While Patricia traces his steps from floor to floor, trying to lure him into a corner, the two finally reach the basement floor, where Patricia can release her inner emotions to Brian. As she sneaks up on his right side, grabbing his right arm, she throws him into the wall and says….
