Wild Roses
by Juliana Hyrri

Wild Roses
The houses were made of cardboard. There were doors and windows and everything. Jenny's mom gave us a white bedsheet. We drew a real floor plan on it. It was a perfect house. Our dolls partied hard.
They were raped. Had sex just for fun. And got accidentally pregnant.
They walked around naked. Compared clothes and had beauty contests. Building and making up stories took lots of time. Whose doll will become the most successful? There was a velvet-brown horse with shiny black eyes, infinite ribbons, a ton of shoes.
A new package smelled like fresh plastic. It was better than the smell of warm copies from the copy machine at school.
