One sentence *Twenty through Twenty-six*
another continuation. I JUST realized I got a daily read for the first ones! THANKS! and now that there's 26... I'm MORE than 1/4 of the way there!
20: I hate my boyfriend because he’s so much better than I’ll ever be, and he’s too busy throwing his life away to realize it.
21: When I was a child, I used to crawl under the bottom shelf in my closet to sleep because I couldn’t stand listening to my father screaming.
22: He looked at me and said; "The only thing I really know about my father is the last thing he felt was the cold metal of the gun pressed against his head."
23: I still giggle when I think about the word ‘penis’.
24: I hate food.
25: I've never been more happy to tell someone the truth.
26: I forgave him every time, because I thought that if I loved him enough, maybe he might stop hitting me.

I think twenty-four is your shortest yet. That one has a lot of possibility.
I completely empathize with number twenty, or at least the first part. For the second I can sympathize.
Perhaps you can turn twenty into just what "he" says? It seems too well put together for dialog.
Twenty-five is a great one for a prompt. Twenty-three is kind of about innocence, and how it's retained, or not. Twenty-one has a good story behind it. I think I like twenty-six best.
Dammit, commenting on every one again.
Congrats on the daily read thing, by the way!

i love 24, its definitely the shortest but the most meaningful, 25 is kool also, keep them coming, i love reading them.
