Page 91 of See You Next Tuesday

Anya: And he gets kind of cranky if he goes too long without touching me? Not even sexually, just like, he’s happier if he can sit next to me so our knees can touch or he can put his arm around my waist or whatever

Simone: Brb getting another pill

Simone: No I’m kidding this is very sweet

Simone: But also, having met you, you’re not feeling kinda suffocated?

Anya: SIMONE, THAT IS THE WEIRD PART

Anya: I don’t at all

Anya: If anything I feel really comforted that he’s always around?

Anya: It’s possible I did not properly account for how much being so isolated this year affected my mental health

Simone: Correct, you did not

Simone: But I’m REALLY glad you feel this way now

Simone: Have you guys talked yet about what happens after the election? Also is election day next week or the week after, I forget

Anya: Next week, which is crazy

Anya: We haven’t talked about what happens after, but I’m also like, not even that anxious about it?

Simone: The word “that” doing a lot of work in that sentence

Anya: Ha

Anya: I don’t know. It’s hard to imagine being anywhere but here, which is so weird, I’ve only been on the island three months

Simone: Sierra is thrilled to have you

Anya:

Anya: She’s the absolute best

Anya: Omg wait I didn’t tell you, Sierra’s friend Bobbie is SO MAD about me and Gabe

Anya: She has such a big crush on him, she’s furious he doesn’t flirt with her anymore

Simone: Gabe? Not flirt with a human being?

Anya: Fair, he doesn’t flirt with her as MUCH

Simone: Lol

Simone: And you’re okay with that part? Him being, idk, how he is?

Anya: Yeah, totally

Anya: I mean obviously this is all extremely new, so who knows what could change

Anya: But he never gives me any reason to doubt him

Anya: It’s like, for the last ten years, all Gabe and I ever had were questions

Anya: And now we’re finally at the part where we tell each other the answers
