I once knew a girl, named Hope, who loved shopping, looking at items, and buying things. With many talents, piano and athletics among her favorites, she often won honors the competitions she was involved in. Having grown up in a Christian family, she had also begun a relationship with God at an early age. She was happy, with friends, goals, and a future of opportunity. I’ve heard her describe herself as living her ideal of the American Dream at that time in her life.

Sequel to Though None Go With Me, the short story I wrote two years ago. However, it was written in a way that you don't have to read the first story to understand this one.

Story is told in the perspective of GLENDA.
