I couldn’t believe I could quarantine somewhere like this. Their “cabin” was more like a 5-star resort, equipped with hi-speed internet and heated bathroom flooring. Apart from learning how to jet-ski, the coolest part was probably meeting J’s parents. It STILL doesn’t make sense how such a keener came from two crazy hippies, but genes are weird I guess. I always really liked J, but I never knew how similar the two of us really were. We somehow even have the same favourite author. Turns out a global pandemic was the push I needed all along to make a new friend. Figures that’s what it would take.
