"You know the other name for the moon?" I asked the little girl next to me, feeling a sense of Deja vu.
"Huh?" She glanced over at me, her eyes starting to glaze over with sleep.
"It's the Poor Man's Lantern." I breathed, remembering when my father told me the exact same thing.
Joanna Hayes is a 17-year-old college student who's been moving from one place to the next since she was born, and once she moves into a small house, with a few of her best friends, in Texas across the street from a sweet girl and her single, very handsome, father, everything changes for better or for worse.
"It's easy to love the moon from afar, but would you still love it up close? Craters and all?"

"Why are you doing this to me, am I your new play thing now that Rose is out the picture?" I say as a tear runs down my face. "Just shut up." She says, her voice barely above a whisper. "What? Shut up?" I spit at her. She stands up to meet my level. "Just shut up Freya."
