It was august, summer was coming to an end and the last year of high school was about to start. That was Dorothea's last summer in Tupulo, the following year she would have moved to Los Angeles, she had made her decision, she hadn't told anyone yet, nor to her boyfriend Dylan, nor to her best friend Betty, she didn't know how to tell them, she thought that would have broken their heart and made them think she didn't care about them. That wasn't true, she cared, she cared so much about both of them, she just couldn't bear the thought of staying in that place any longer, she needed to go away, to change her life, to meet new people, to find her path, the place where she really belonged to, because it certainly wasn't Tupulo.
Inspired by Taylor Swift's songs Dorothea, Tis the damn season, Cardigan, Betty, August.
You don't need to know the songs to understand the story but you should listen to them because they're wonderful.
