the sun is out, the sky is blue

Blue is well aware that she hasn't been the most fun person to be around, lately. The cafe's still struggling -- ever since paying a ton to get the windows fixed after the Hatchimals, it seems like, and business just seems to be a little lower than she'd expect -- and she's been weighed down with thoughts about the future.

And also, if she's the best choice as a girlfriend. As it turns out, thinking about that just makes you a shittier girlfriend.

So today she's determined to be present; stop thinking about the past and the future and letting things catch up with her -- live in the moment and have some fun with Ellie.

She hops from her bike at the driveway, texts knock knock and wanders up to the wrap around porch, leaning with a smile on the doorframe.
