Ashley Phoenix Riley - 5 - Traumatic Education

Patti had been in my arms but I just had set her down. Three guys on roller blades came rolling down the walk. I gave them space, but one reached out and knocked me to the ground…
The trauma of a young injured woman; the care and observation took its own toll. The first Doctor a Resident, while he knew what he was doing, but I could have been a side of beef…“ Mom, I think they were angry with me because of Ryta or the street guys. One said, ‘I needed to watch out who I associate with…’”

Ashley Phoenix Riley - 4 - Colliding Lives

I was approached by Ryta to whom I accepted a request to dance...
I gave her a kiss upon the end of our last dance…

Jess and I bumped into each other. I had lost my balance and took
hold of Jess so I wouldn’t fall. Standing face to face, we embraced
with a warm kiss… Jess and I would have more time in the future.
