Summary
“All those words that live in your head and the best you can come up with for me is a Disney moral conscious?”
Carol pauses, the words and the protest were too real, even for her imagination. Maybe it was the drugs still in her system. Maybe all those years behind the bottle were finally catching up with her. She pinches the tip of her index finger, reigniting the sting of the torn skin underneath. This was real. Right? She turns slowly, the grit of the outdoor tile sticking to her feet in a way that reminds her its been too many days since her last shower.
Finds the empty space she expected and is almost disappointed in a way she doesn’t quite know how to put into words.
--
Or
After losing Helen Carol spirals. Finds that maybe if she wants to save the world she has to let herself be open to the possibility of happiness again. Of love.
Of falling for the mystery that is Zosia.
