The Nightmare of Your Dreams Narrative Essay
The Nightmare of Your Dreams Once in a very small village lived a little, fifteen-year-old girl named Mandy and her thirty-five- year old mother, Amber. Mandy was the sweetheart of the town, she spoke to everyone and was very polite, unlike her mother who has gained a bad reputation of being the town’s prostitute. Everyone look down on Amber because of her hideous activities and her birthing a child at the age of fifteen, but everyone had no doubt in their mind that Mandy will never fall in her mother’s foot steps. One day after Amber came home, very intoxicated, due to her lack of money she earned in her last business encounter, she noticed little Mandy playing with her doll in the flower garden out back, and soon evil curious thoughts began to cross her mind. Amber thought that Mandy was old enough to start helping bring in some fast money to help around the house. Amber also thought that this is the age that she also began interested in the opposite sex and taking playing house to a whole new level. But after that train of thought Amber’s mind went into a dark place and she began to wonder if this is the age that little Mandy is thinking the same thoughts as she did when she was ten. So Amber formulated a plan to see if she was right. “Hey Mandy, can you come in the house please?” Amber yelled from the backdoor. Mandy happily ran into the house to see what her mom wanted. “Yes ma’am?” Mandy asks very curiously because normally when her mom comes home she goes straight to sleep. “Have you ever wondered what mommy’s job is?” she asked in a knifing way. “Sometimes I used to wonder, but I was too afraid to ask you so I would ask the neighbors or some of my friends parent to see if you worked in the same place or anything, but all they would do is shake their heads and tell me to keep playing and don’t worry about it. So what do you do?” she asked in an intrigued was. “Well tomorrow is ‘Bring Your Child to Work Day’, and I was curious to see if

    Connie is fifteen years old and obviously self-conscious because of the love that she never receives at home. Her whole life revolves around attention from boys since she does not feel loved at home. Her sister June appears to be the favorite in the family, as she receives all of the positive attention. Connie's mother doesn’t speak kindly to Connie or about Connie, and Connie doesn't think well of her mother either. Her father does whatever he can to please Connie but doesn’t seek for a good father-daughter relationship. They never talk about what is happening in their lives and act as if they are only acquaintances. Connie wants to appear older and wiser than she actually is and her head is always full of meaningless daydreams to help her cope. Her promiscuity leads to attraction from boys and older men where she becomes terrified and realizes that she is not as grown up as she thought. Connie comes face to face with the harshreality of being forced into adulthood at the age of fifteen because of the special attention of Arnold Friend.…
