*Tolops pov*
Me and Sal walked out of the hospital. How the fuck can you stand this heat? I'm melting Sal complains, pulling off her cardigan. She ties it by the sleeves around her waist. I dunno. Wanna go for coffee? I ask. She nods. Dude, I've a few more confessions I need to tell you Sal says as she jogs next to me. Are you gonna tell me? I ask. No, another day she replies. A dog leaps up at her, snapping at her ankles. She leaps back in shock and jumps onto a wall. The owner takes the dog and walks away. Sal jumps down from the wall onto my arms. Despite the fact she's pregnant, she's so light. Do you eat enough? You're as light as a feather I tell her. Correction: free as feather she corrects. You seem like a person with a very interesting life. What is it? I ask as we walk down the street. First I was an English, dance teacher and p.e teacher then a physcologist then a model and then a clothes designer. Now I'm here. Who knows. By next September I could be gone. My whole life is more or less a journey of finding out who I actually am Sal tells me as we go into Starbucks. She orders an iced latte. I order a hazelnut coffee. She gets a free cookie with the latte. We go to a table. Why do you need to find out who you are? You're an amazing person with attitude and looks that stop anyone in their tracks. Also, the squad love you I tell her, looking into her sea blue eyes. K she says. I see her eyes getting glassy. She takes out her phone. Explain why I get hate messages like this she sobs and shows me her phone. It's on her Instagram account from an obvious count who only cares about themselves.
I read the messages.

Worthless shit
Scumbag
Loser
Bully
Big ugly mistake
Dancing cow
Loser who can't keep her mouth shut
Imma leak your nudes
Slut
Whore
One night stander
Hoe

I read them, getting more and more madder at that person. Sal snatched her phone and walks out.
