Flip, grip, hang, flip, land sounds simple right? Well on one particular day Anne Wheeler just could get that last part, land. No matter how hard she worked all she got out of it was rips on her hands and bruises from falling. W.D had left about an hour earlier and Phillip was up working in his office. She occasionally stoped to take a sip of water and redo her frizzy brown hair.
"Anne are you almost done yet? It's time for us to go?" Came the voice of her significant other. Almost as if cue Anne came tumbling down landing straight on her back, she had to have her worse fall right in front of him.
"Anne are you ok? I think that's enough for tonight" Phillip said lifting her off the ground and onto her feet. Anne didn't say anything only hung her head and started unwrapping her hands.

One they reached home Phillip could see Anne just wasn't herself, he tried to make her laugh and in response only got a few words or a slight huff or puff. No matter how hard he tried he failed at cheering Anne up. "Annie! Please tell me what's wrong, did something happen today? Did I do something?" Phillip said still puzzled at his girlfriend.

Anne looked at him with a sad glance and hung her head. "Phillip I'm so sorry. I couldn't land anything today an..and I'm going to get kicked out of the circus cause I can't do anything, and I'm just so sorry." Anne's words fell out of her mouth and Phillips heart crushed.

Phillip embraced Anne in his arms and stroked her hair, pulling her at arms length he wiped away her tears and kissed her forehead. "Anne I would never kick you out, everyone knows people have their bad days and today was just one of them. Your the best Ariel artist I know and we all know it!" Phillip cracked a smile at Anne.

Anne looked up at her lover and smiled for the first time all day. "Thank you Phillip, I love you" she sniffed wrapping herself back around him. Maybe today wasn't so bad after all.
