Wild Thyme 9: a show for everybody but me
Author: Kat
Title: a show for everybody but me
Story: In the Heart
Colors: Wild thyme 9 (chimes at midnight)
Supplies and Materials: Graffiti (Goodbye My Danish Sweetheart, Mitski), postcard, frame, acrylics (Yeah, maybe it’s not healthy, but I’m going to keep doing it.), novelty beads (I don't know how to have casual conversation. You think you're talking about one thing, and either you are and it's incredibly boring, or you're not because it's subtext and you need a decoder ring. - Sara B. Cooper)
Word Count: 145
Rating: PG
Summary: Summer in medical school.
Warning: none
Notes: none
Everyone wants Summer to be something different.
Her professors want her to be a perfect student. Her classmates want her to be the kind of person who goes to clubs. Connor wants her to be… something, she’s not sure, but sexier, definitely. Her family, maybe, doesn’t want to change her as much, but they’re far away now, and anyway they want her to be happy.
She doesn’t know how to be these things. There aren’t rules for this, not even the secret kind that Gina tells her. She talks to people and finds she’s said something she didn’t mean to say. She goes out with Connor and finds she’s offered something she didn’t mean to give. She doesn’t understand, and no one will explain, and homesickness clogs her throat at night when she’s trying to sleep.
She’s only been in medical school for a month.
