as far away as i can get, she says it as if it were a joke, a hint of laughter laced in her featherlight voice, but bitterness was still there, buried somewhere within her. she thinks of her mother and her new kids. the ones that were not her father's. her eyes harden for a passing second before the anguish melts away again.
you think so? she sucks in a deep breath, smiling as he mentions coming there with her. it was a nice thought, the idea of them having the whole isle to themselves, ah — her face flushes. i think you'd like it there. it's all one big beach. and it's a hell of a lot warmer, and sunnier, most days.
new neighbors? her brows raise in intrigue. how's that working out for you? hopefully they're not noisy.
