setting: atlanta georgia giovanna's aunt's apartment.
giovanna sat quietly at her aunts dinner table organizing old polaroid photos she had found of herself. a cold lemonade sat in front of her along with an old jewelry box.
the tv running in the background on some random soap opera while sizzling was heard. constant sounds of a spatula scraping a pan scratched her brain as she tried focusing on the task in front of her.
giovanna frowned once she came across a certain photo. she pushed the polaroid aside now seeing multiple pictures of her from that time period.
it was from when she had pink hair. her lip now tucked between her teeth as she held the photo up analyzing it. she had a bright smile on her face even tho she recalled being paranoid in that moment.
that was when she used to take edibles back to back. a vibrating sound was made against the table slightly startling her. 'karrah' it displayed.
gio huffed before answering the phone making sure to put her earphones in. "i'm bored," her friend announced as she was walking outside.
"same" gio responded still looking through the pictures. the reason why giovanna was at her aunts house was because there was a leakage in her apartment. it was so bad that the tiles in front of her bath tub was lifting as the carpeted floors were soaked.
it started because she got high and fell asleep in the tub with the tap on. she could have drowned but her head was rested on the ledge so the second the water grazed her face she woke up.
only thing is her aunt didn't know she was high. gio lied and said that it came from an apartment above which was on the same floor her aunt was on. "watchu doin?" karrah asked as she noticed her best friends brows furrow as she looked down. she couldn't see her organizing anything since gio's phone wasn't propped up.
"im going through my old photos" she mutters taking a sip from her tall glass of lemonade. the scraping on the spatula got louder as her aunt began adding seasonings.
"remember when i had pink hair" now showing her friend the pictures. karrah frowned before replacing her face with a smile, "yeah. you looked adorable." she replied making giovanna side eye her. "okay" was all she said before putting all the photos away and back into the box she found it in.
a bowl was placed in front of her. it was a bowl of oatmeal. "thanks" she muttered to her aunt's boyfriend. the apartment was quite small, a place big enough for only two.
