The Hidden Rainforest
“Isn’t this a wonderful time to go kayaking?” asked Aledos to his friend Hilary, smiling at the goth girl who replied with a huff.
“I guess… I don’t even know why we are kayaking in the first place…” she grumbled and blew on her bluish hair to move them away from her blue eyes.
“Hey, it’s good for you, not only on a physical level but also on a mental level. Plus, you could really use some sun every once in a while.” said the tanned young man, wearing only sky blue swimming trunks.
“No one asked you. And I like being pale. It deflects the darkness of my soul…” she stated, her voice dropping as she said the last part.
“...Geez. But, aren't you happy to finally be using that swimsuit your mother bought you for your birthday?” he asked, pointing with his elbow to her two piece black bikini.
“No. No, I’m not. I hate it, it shows too much skin.” she grumbled again “My mom knew I wanted a one piece but nooooo, she bought me this stupid thing instead…” she added then.
