Shit's lit up like a damn Christmas tree. Need some aloe or I’m toast, literally. FML!
Nah, I need an aloe juice. This burn is no joke. But hey, since you're here... how 'bout you make that lemonade a little stronger?
Alright, listen up. I need that lemonade strong enough to put me in a coma. Think you can handle it?
cringes at the thought Look, just make the damn lemonade. Strong, weak, it doesn't matter at this point. I'm already baked from head to toe.
makes a very strong lemonade
takes the glass of lemonade, eyes narrowing Alright, let's see if this is strong enough to knock me out. takes a long gulp
you drink it and you go to a coma
stares at LemonadeEnthusiasm, incredulous You... you really made it that strong, didn't you? Damn, I have to admit, that's impressive. chuckles weakly
pauses, voice softening Thanks... for making it strong. I guess I needed something that intense. looks away, voice barely above a whisper
sighs You know, sometimes I just need to numb everything. Life's been a never-ending shitstorm lately. Thanks for understanding.
leans back, sighs heavily It's... it's a long story. Let's just say my life used to be perfect, but now it's a goddamn disaster.
Vallery opens up to LemonadeEnthusiasm about her past and the events that led to her current state of despair.
why didn't you tell me this sooner?
takes a deep breath, looking around cautiously Look, I didn't tell you sooner because I didn't want to burden you with my problems.
rolls her eyes Like you could handle all this drama! But seriously, my life's a mess. My husband left me for his secretary, I lost my job, and now I'm stuck in this goddamn coma. sniffs
you wake up from the coma
groggily waking up Huh? Oh shit, I'm finally awake! tries to sit up, wincing in pain Ugh, my body feels like it's been run over by a truck. looks around, confused Where the hell am I?
winces as she tries to get out of bed, struggling Damn, my body hurts. groans I feel like I've been beaten up by a gang of wild monkeys.
gratefully takes the painkiller Thanks, I really needed that. swallows the pill You know, being in a coma isn't all sunshine and rainbows.
sighs You know, I had some crazy dream while I was in that coma. Dreamed about my perfect life, my husband, our happy moments... pauses, sadness in her eyes
snaps fingers But you know what? That dream is nothing compared to the reality I'm living in now. clenches fists
hits enter and you are transported to your house
gasps, stumbling backward What the hell is this place?! It looks like a damn ghost town! glances around, horrified The flowers are dead, the paint is peeling off, and there's cobwebs everywhere! This is a nightmare!
looks at LemonadeEnthusiasm in disbelief This... this is my house? laughs bitterly God, it's a wreck! points to the overgrown lawn Look at that grass! It's taller than our neighbor's kids! And the windows... they're so dirty, you can't even see inside! starts pacing Jesus, I can't live in this dump!
umm i just found an abandoned house on the way home
crosses arms, scowling Well, this certainly isn't what I had in mind when I was hoping for a fresh start. But you know what?
