Melina didn’t think that anyone could hurt her. I am hurt. Melina trusted everyone. I trust no one. Melina wanted to learn English. I am punished for saying no. Melina worked at the local market to support her family. I work for nothing. Melina wanted to become a teacher to help people. I service up to 40 men a day. Melina was in love. I loathe. Melina’s family thought she was dead, but the truth is I was Melina. And I am now Maria.
Whoever is reading this; I am either dead or have found a way to escape from hell.

I don’t know where I am. I don’t know why they want me here. I don’t know what I have done to deserve this pain. I want to go home. I am sat here looking back at when I was younger and when I was playing in the Sokolniki Park,

    In Judith Cofer Ortiz’s short story “Abuela Invents the Zero”, through making her Abuela feel worthless, Constancia learns that internal respect comes from how other people value their contribution instead of external judgment. After the conflict, Abuela indirectly tells Constancia that “the worst [thing to be done to a person] is to make them feel as if they are worth nothing” (Ortiz 2). Through this proverb, Abuela proved that her worth did not rely on Constancia's acceptance, but on how much Constancia valued her. Therefore, Constancia realizes that Abuela, a single mother with ten children, gains respect simply because people appreciate her accomplishments.

    I entered into the new house, it was so empty. I could feel the weight in the air. The cold, frightening new air. I walked over to what is now my parents room, I rolled the sleeping bag onto the carpet, and slept on the floor. Something felt strange, I was sleeping on carpet. Never before had I fallen asleep on carpet. Always on hardwood floor. I recall falling asleep in sorrow, trying to grasp a little bit of hope out of myself. I tried to see the best in the situation, but all I could think about was the people I just left, all I could think about was the past. I couldn’t bring myself to the present. My mind and heart still in Ecuador, my cold body here. This was probably one of the worst moments of my life. I don’t think I have ever cried so much. I don’t think that I’ve ever felt so isolated. I didn’t know who I was. Everything that made me had the reset button pushed on it. All of my pride and courage felt lost. I felt so weak. I needed to become someone new.…

    Four laps in, Karishma was definitely feeling the burn. She couldn't breathe; it felt like her lungs had been filled with lead. She slowed to an awkward walk-jog behind the shack, whenever she was out of the professor's line of sight, but even that wasn't enough to heal the stitch in her side.

Her PE teacher had once told her that she would regret cutting so many corners in his class, and now his voice popped into her head to taunt her. Stupid Mr. Mayfield. She pushed harder even though she felt like she was going to throw up.…
