Bootanya started on her way to nowhere. Fortunately for Bootanya, the fallen trees made it easy for her to find her way out of the forest. She wandered down the road until she reached a small convenient store. She purchased some Advil for a headache, a honey bun, and a Diet Coke (because she was trying to lose some weight (which doesn't make sense considering she hadn't eaten (because she was unconscious in the forest))). Since Bootanya had nowhere to go, she sat on the ground behind the store and ate her honey bun in peace.
"Are you alright?" said the tall, lanky, ratchet-looking girl standing before her. She couldn't have been more than 17 years old. She was long and pale with bright blue eyes and no lips. She was the exact opposite of Bootanya who was short and plump with Christmas-colored weave and bright red lipstick that did not fade despite her being unconscious for who knows how long.
"No! I ain't doin alright! I gotz no place to go cuz I gotz no idea who I is!!"
"Oh...well come with me! You can come stay at my home with me until you remember who you are and get your life together. By the way, my name is Britney."
And so Bootanya took her up on that offer. She left her empty honey bun wrapper on the sidewalk and got into Britney's white van because it is obviously okay to trust strangers you meet behind convenient stores.
