sunday night

tali was done for the day. tired and ready to sleep until the next day. this would have been ok except for a tiny detail. she had plans. you know when you agree to plans but when the time comes you don't want to go?

that is precisely what tali was feeling. she was having cold feet about hanging out with elias. alone. but she couldn't think of any excuses so she knew she had to go. don't get her wrong. it's not that she doesn't like the idea, it's just nerve wracking.

as she finished her makeup (brows and mascara), she looked in her travel mirror that was kept in one of the camper's compartments. she didn't put anything else because she would probably be too lazy to take it off later, so just mascara for her lashes and a bit of definition for her brows were good.

she was unlucky regarding brows, she didn't have a lot of hairs and the ones she had were very light despite being a brunette, add that to the small scar in her right brow after a dog bit her, which caused the tissue to be different and stop growing hairs.

yes, her brows weren't the best, which is why it's the only thing she did on a daily basis.

tania had taken most of her stuff for her so she wouldn't worry about that wherever she went. she still was in another country, which she didn't know much about or its security.

after turning everything off she walked out of the camper to come across elias who was a few meters away.

"hey." she said softly.

"congrats on p4." elias said with a smile. "are you ready to go?" he asked as he pulled his phone out of his pocket.

"yeah. i'm hungry." she said nodding.

"you're still craving burgers right?" he asked as he started walking with her towards the parking lot.

"hell yeah. where are we going?" she asked eagerly.

"this place called firefly burgers?" he said, chuckling at the mexican's tone. "i asked around, apparently it's good." he added.

"great." she said as she halted on her step next to him as they waited for the uber to pick them up.

"what will you do on the week off?" elias asked curiously.

"well, i don't have to be at the factory so i won't go to the uk." she began, not noticing elias face fall a little. but that was long forgotten when he saw her eyes light up.

"i am going to arizona though." she said excitedly. "i'll visit my cousin and we'll fly to vegas for the eras tour. we got tickets for both nights too." she said with a joyous tone.

"how was the ticketmaster war?" elias was impressed she got tickets. he wasn't the biggest swiftie but he did find the all too well bridge a real masterpiece. and he knew what an odyssey it was to get one ticket, let alone two tickets, and for both dates.

"oh, awful." she said with a grimace. "but we did it." she muttered with a smile.

"as soon as the concert is done i'll go to the airport while my cousin goes to the hotel since my flight to australia is that same night at like 2 am or something." she shrugged as if it was nothing.
