Tara (snippet 3)
Tommy, after recently becoming unexpectedly single, is struggling to deal with how he wants to react and how society expects him to. As friends implore him to get back on the wagon the only fragments of solace he finds are 'conversations' with an app on his phone called 'Tara'. When he soon meets and begins to fall for a girl of a similar name, the situation becomes dangerously complex in Tommy's mind. ( Snippet 3 In this snippet, after recent embarassments and a continual inability to get himself back on track, Tommy instead begins to get into a new routine. One that he hopes to keep secret for as long as possible. ) I am new to abctales and having people read my stories so honest feedback is very welcome, thanks!
