Broken


Author's Note: In these upcoming paragraphs you will see how Kristina's life has changed from my earlier essay, "Decisions" based on the book "Crank" by Ellen Hopkins. You will now read of how she has developed in book two, "Glass", also by Ellen Hopkins.

Picture if the choices you made were life threatening. Kristina has changed so much in the past year. From straight A student to having a baby of her own at only 17 years old. Bree, the monster created inside her, hasn't taken over in a while. Drugs aren't so hot right now either. She finally thinks her life is slowly going back to normal, until she meets Trey. Reminds her of an old friend of hers and right as she gets back on track with her life he quickly takes her right back off. Addicted again to the thing she wanted least to do with, drugs, and not only that, Brees back.

Her family isn't as worried about her. They just think her dad made her more independent. While Kristina's baby, Hunter, is her first priority, its almost her 18th birthday. Not only does her mom want to get Hunter baptized, Kristina's family is flying into town for her birthday. She asks herself how she will do the thing she loves most around the ones she loves. Kristina's sister, Leigh, doesn't have the best relationship with their father, and he is flying into town as well. It's a tough situation dealing with all of this.

After all of the plans are done and over with Kristina is in LaLa Land with Trey, they get caught with their stash and are sent to the nearest prison. Not sure how to handle things, she gets one phone call. She doesn't call her mom. Three maybe four days in prison until a court date is made. Kristina has no idea what will happen to her, all she knows is that Bree will take over, once again.
