The Most Tear-Jerking Speakeasy Award goes to…

by Renee on May 23, 2013

She ripped our hearts out with her words and we love her even more because of it.

The Most Tear-Jerking Post Speakeasy Award goes to…

Lorraine,

for her post, Never Pick Up the Phone.

Here’s a heart-wrenching snippet of her tear-jerking post:

“There wasn’t a boy,” Pink breathed, face flushing. I bet she was feeling every squeeze of her heart at that moment too. “I mean… she says… she says she was raped.”

 

Thank you for sharing your story with us, Lorraine.
