shishi gets rejected

thwart

"What do you have to say for yourself?"

"what"

the two appeared puzzled.

"Where are you from?"

"maryland!!" [was gonna insert shishi's specific place of residence but i have class]

"Oh. Possibly she has a alias over there."

"ig" 

"So you really have no idea?"

"yes" 

"Haha, good on our part then. But also a bit disappointing."

"can i go home"

"We can't send you anywhere yet."

"why :anguished:"

"We need to get you back on your feet and you need to sign a NDA."

"what a nda"

"You're really dumb."

The sunglasses guy takes shishi over to a trailer while the other one goes over to talk with some people. That Gigi girl gets up from her chair and starts to make her way across the sand. she notices shishi being dragged away and stops her.

"Are you new?" 

"what"

"What's your name?"

"shishi"

"Mm, don't overwork yourself, Shishi."

she walks away and stumbles before she trips. people rush over to help her up as she assures them she's ok. 

that interaction with Gigi wasn't that bad. surprisingly, she seems to care for her employees.

she totally thought shishi was a employee

shishi is not qualified enough to work in any environment

the guy resumes and takes shishi inside. 

he sits shishi down on the small couch in the far end of the trailer and searches through a messy drawer.

he picks a bottle of unmarked pills out of the drawer and gives one to shishi

"Take this." he holds his hand out to her and gives her a water bottle and the pill

"what is this" she takes the pill 

"Drugs."

shishi spits out the pill

"The hell?"

"was that a joke"

"No?"

"huh"

shishi picks up the pill and takes it again, confused

and that was the start of shishi's drug addiction.
