Let's be Together
By the time the chorus comes, the whole van is in on it, voices blending in an off-key but enthusiastic symphony.
The windows are down, wind whipping through as we barrel down the road.
I try to focus on the lyrics, on the fact that we’re finally headed to the beach, but my gaze keeps drifting over to Millie.
She’s across from me, wedged between bags, looking out the window or at anything that’s not me.
Her silence is driving me insane, and honestly, it feels like she’s doing it on purpose. Meanwhile, I’m doing my damned best to not look at her every two seconds.
