Happy for A While
"It started way back when I was a little girl, see. I had dreams -- beautiful dreams so close to my heart I didn't tell nobody about them."

Originally published in Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine, Happy For A While is the story of what happens when one young woman's dreams meet disappointment!

A nice, short, quick read that presents a cold dose of reality told in an authentic voice.
Not the ending I hoped for at the beginning... but the ending makes sense based on events in the story.
