**My Entry for AMLKoski's Give Back Contest: Bitter Winter**

Alexandra Winters didn't have a problem --she had a diagnosis. It just so happened that her ADHD made it necessary for her to take amphetamines, and it just so happened that her school --her dream, perfect life, cinderella-school-- had a very strict drug-free policy. No exceptions.

It was fine for a while. But as with most things, Karma tends to catch up with you and the consequences for her actions might be too bitter of a pill to swallow.
