1. It was weird to think that his favorite sweatshirt had come from a used clothing store. Sometimes he wondered about the previous owner.
A. It was weird to think that his favorite sweatshirt had come from a used clothing store. Sometimes he wondered about the previous owner. If they had been awkward like he was, always trying to hide himself away within the sweatshirt.
He liked to pull the hood up and hide in his music. Headphones and sunglasses were an essential part of his wardrobe. They let him walk amongst the crowds of people without cringing into his skin.
2. They watched as her brother approached the casket and laid her favorite sweatshirt inside with her body. He was teary-eyed as he closed the casket lid.
A. They watched as her brother approached the casket and laid her favorite sweatshirt inside with her body. He was teary-eyed as he closed the casket lid. She’d been the last living member of his family.
“What are we supposed to say?” Adam whispered desperately. “He’s coming over here.”
“I don’t know. Wait until he says something, then express our regret?”
3. The young girl insisted on wearing her favorite sweatshirt to the performance, even after her mother pointed out that it was inappropriate for the occasion.
A. The young girl insisted on wearing her favorite sweatshirt to the performance, even after her mother pointed out that it was inappropriate for the occasion. Her father gave her an indulgent smile and hushed her mother. “Let the girl wear what she wants.”
His power and influence was such that she was seen as endearing rather than obnoxious. Her mother seethed. She enjoyed herself immensely.
It was the kind of thing she would think back on in the future. Those times when she had been cruel to her mother for no other reason than to prove she was Papa’s favorite.
She should have curried her mother’s favor as well. But she was short-sighted and there was nowhere else for her to turn once her Papa died.
