The Preserve, Wednesday Early Evening
Today… today was something and Karina was blaming the island. It was the only reason she had for, when her manager had asked her how she was doing, she'd gone off into a tirade about all the petty, niggling little things that had been bugging her.
Karina was pretty sure he was never going to ask her how she was doing ever again.
Once she'd gotten off the phone with him, Karina had talked to herself (feeling like a total loser) long enough to get a grasp on what the hell was going on. Truth. Whenever she tried to lie, she couldn't.
Worse, it was like she couldn't shut up about the truth.
After getting tired of hiding in her room, Karina had made it to the Perk, gotten a hot chocolate (snapping at the barista about how it wasn't a nice day and no thanks for asking), and from there had decided that discretion was the better part of valor.
It was tempting to head off to the mainland but Karina didn't really want to tell strangers her truths any more than she wanted to tell… well, anyone else. So she headed to the preserve instead.
If she said anything, it would be to the teal deer, and that was way less damaging than all the other options. After all, it wasn’t like they could talk.
… Right?
Oh god, what if they did?
Karina decided that, even if the deer could, it was better than, like, her classmates. The preserve was a sanctuary.
Okay, truth compelled her to concede it was really a hiding spot. Shut up.
[Open, sure!]
