This year brought anger, fear, disappointment, and sadness. It was a year for the books. Maybe not a good book, but a book. Some days when she awoke, she didn't understand the point. She wanted to turn around and get back in bed until the sun set. Athena Black's sixth year highlights loss, love, and fear. Three emotions that can drive you to do almost anything. Despite her challenges, Athena's boyfriend never leaves her side. He makes sure she knows she always has someone to lean on when she can't stand herself. Together, they faced the days. They made things just slightly easier for each other.
