The Beauty Inside

D.S. TOSSELL is an emotional roller coaster of a reader. She loves any kind of book that will make her laugh, make her cry and more importantly make her think. She is a nut for all things holiday. Loves to cook but cannot bake. She loves to relax and hang out with her husband and watch movie marathons. When she is not writing her newest emotionally driven book she is chasing around her two small children. I'd like to imagine that day never existed. I'd like to pretend that after my prom night, I was able to then graduate, go to college, find my career, get married, and start a family. But that's not reality. He took me that night four years ago, and he never truly returned me.

Michael

Torture.

That's what I feel in this moment.

Torture that I am over thirty-thousand feet in the air and that I was too late. Too late to stop the onslaught she was bound to endure. Torture that I have to now hear about over the phone from my very irate boss. Torture that she now knows about her biggest nightmare officially becoming a reality.

And it's all because of me.

"Mike, I know you're upset but I need your head in this." Lamino says over the phone that I have crushed to my ear. I feel the plastic cracking the more I squeeze but I can no longer control my anger.

Whitney.

My beauty needed me, and I wasn't there for her.

"Mike!" Snapping out of my guilt ridden gaze I shake my head, rubbing my eyes as I do so.

"Yeah, I'm here."
