    Summary

    Sleep. Get up. Put on her armor. Face the day and smile. Smile. Smile! Come home and break down. This was the way Darcy Lewis lived her life. Her eyes opened and she sighed.

    “God damn it,” she slurred. She was awake and staring at her blurred ceiling. She had woken up again. Why? Why couldn’t she just not exist? Why couldn’t she have passed away in her sleep? At least then she wouldn’t have to pretend like there was a point to her life. She wouldn’t have to pretend like she mattered. She did the same thing every day, day in and day out. Wake up, get up, go to work, play babysitter, pretend she was fine, come home, cry and sleep. Then she would get up and do it all again. What point was there to her life? She wasn’t Jane; she wasn’t making scientific discoveries or trying to make the world a better place. She didn’t have someone to come home to at night, someone who loved her. She had nothing and no one… so what was the point of living?
