Rain:1205: Not Okay

Synopsis

Author Notes

And here we hit the main setting of this chapter, at last. And (I think) the first time we've seen Porter's Books since waaaaaay back in Chapter 3 (though it felt way less time capsule-y back then). XD

Transcript

But I don't want to cry. Not for her. She's not worth it... But every second I'm in my own head, I'm on the verge of crying.
I'm glad I don’t have to worry about school today, but it just leaves me more time alone with my thoughts.

The book store?
Mhm! Hiding out in the manga section of stores like this has been a coping mechanism for me for a loooong time!
