EJ [THE TWILIGHT SAGA]

10

a few days later
begin ej's trainings.
jacob and the elders
have to teach him
how to control
himself.

ej puts up with
his father's expectations,
having no other
c h o i c e.
he just wants
to be himself,
to fit in among
his peers,
to make music.

tara uley tries
to ask him out
again.
but her brother
and her father
are skeptical.
they don't want
her to hang out
with leeches.
specifically,
her brother.

"why can't you
let me make
my own decisions?",
she screeches
at her family
and storms
outside
in the pouring rain.
