Purple Wisteria vines twist across the short white walls, up the pillars, and hang down from the large archway hanging over everything. Their cool color contrasts beautifully with all the yellows, blues, pinks, oranges, and reds spread throughout the mystical esque garden below.
It's main focal point, the center piece bringing everything together, is a fountain depicting an old twisted oak tree. The water cascades down into an area below that recycles it to make it look like the canopy of the tree is continuously raining.
Willa smiles as mist from the sprinklers hits her skin.
Gosh, I love it in here.
The sweet smells and all the color.
It's one of my favorite places to be.
No disturbances, just me, myself and—
Bzz.

i need help with this math problem
i mean, you don't have to help if you don't want to or like if you're busy or something
What is it?
well I forgot the quadratic formula equation thing
What year are you in?
sophomore
Oh me too.
Why don't you just look it up?
cause
im trying to find a reason to procrastinate. I hate math. I'm more of a music and literature person
what about you?
Art and science, and health maybe.
oh sweet
what kind of art things do you do?
She pauses.
I shouldn't be telling him things about myself.
He'll use it to his advantage.
Willa groans and taps her thumb on the side of her phone.
Just stuff.
hmm, ok
i like to write songs and play the guitar
Nice.
im getting the feeling you don't want to talk
Not much of a talking person.
is that why you live out in the middle of no where?
What?
you don't seem like a people person
You got that from one comment?
that and i never see you come outside, you haven't come over here to introduce yourself, and your answers are usually short. Also you're very defensive and told me not to be curious, that it wouldn't get me anywhere good so I was just making an assumption.
Don't make assumptions.
but am I wrong?
Doesn't matter.
Making assumptions about people is rude.
my bad
im sure you've already made assumptions about me
How do you figure that?
well, i can tell by your replies and the amount of times you leave me on read
my last foster mom had a doctorals degree in human behavior and psychology
guess she kinda rubbed off on me
you think I'm some annoying kid that never shuts up and you wish we would just move somewhere else so you could get your solitude back
i haven't quite figured out why you don't like people though
You're not gonna find out.
you sure about that?
🥀
Oooo
We're gaining an insight on Jasper's personality.
Will he be able to break Willa's wall?
How long can they go without seeing each other?
