Okay, it’s a bit colder than I expected.
Cue a massive gust of wind sweeping in and blinding me further, as if the
white-on-white-on-white color scheme wasn’t burning my retinas already.
I lurch forward, trying to pluck my hat from the thievery of the wind, and
somehow end up ass deep in a snowbank.
“Perfect. That’s actually exactly how I wanted to end my long day of
travel.”
It takes me a minute to get up, because at this point I’m exhausted. One
long flight from the lower forty-eight to here, one flight in a plane I’m pretty
sure was only intended to be used as a toy, only to end up in complete
darkness in air so cold that it hurts to breathe. This is what I signed up for
though, so I really shouldn’t be surprised.
Eventually, I do get up. Only because the promise of dry pants is calling to
me. The cabin that I up and bought on a whim stands in front of me, tricking
me into thinking it’s going to be cheerful.
At this point, anything is better than the dumpster fire of the life I left
behind. I have been pining over my best friend for years, and somehow I
convinced myself those feelings were reciprocated. News flash: they weren’t.
When I asked him over for dinner and poured out my heart to him, he looked
at me really awkwardly, scratched his neck, and told me that he was seeing
my sister.
My sister, who knew how I felt about him, and hooked up with him
anyway. My sister, who does nothing but break hearts, and take things just
because she can. Oh. And they’re expecting.
Basically, I felt like my life was over, which I know is a bit dramatic. So I
did a very adult thing and threw a giant hissy fit by running away in hopes of
starting over.
My parents took my sister’s side, telling me that a guy like Matthew would
never want me. My sister was thin and beautiful, whereas I’m the kind of girl
he would describe as having a nice personality.
Here, at least, where it’s constantly cold, I can hide behind chunky
sweaters and sweatpants, because it’s too cold for anything else. Here, where
I’m nearly completely isolated, I won’t have to worry about dating.
Instead, I’ll get to focus on my art. I’ll be paying way more for Internet up
here than I ever did back home, but since I need it to take commissions and
talk to my customers, it was kind of necessary.
Right then. I guess all that’s left to do is to put the key inside the lock and
enter my new home. The pictures of this place I saw had it all lit up and
warm inside. Of course, it’s been sitting empty for a long time, so there’s no
lights on now. It’s as dark as the landscape I’m standing in still. The very real
threat of bears and moose nearby has me shoving my suitcases through the
door and locking it behind me, giving me the opportunity to investigate my
new home further.
