Co-Challenge: 3 of 10

Maybe it was the keys jabbing into my thighs, or the suffocating feeling of all-too-familiar depression, but that night I had a what could only be euphemistically expressed as a nightmare. I was running. Always running. Sometimes people chased me, sometimes I chased them. I was a wild beast without instincts.

Then I saw her.

Co-Challenge: 2 of 10

I went home again, a lonely man. The laughter of the party mocked me, as if each person there knew I would be alone that night.

I used to dream of her. I used to dream for myself, my future. Yet, here I am again, falling asleep before I even empty my pockets.

It wasn't until I saw that happy couple that I realized how unhappy I really was. I didn't know them, but I had a strange sense of familiarity around them. Maybe it was that look she had - did I recognize that look? Or his - had I been entranced by someone like that before?

Official Co-Challenge

We create a 10 picture story together. I will take the first picture (unless you actively want to) and will begin a story with a few sentences explaining the picture. Then we alternate pictures/captions until we have a resolution. Extra pictures may happen... maybe a denouement?
