>>5892440Extra info to give a better idea on what you're dealing with.
Your neighbor is Esty. You've technically known her since childhood, but it's more like you sometimes acknowledged each other's existence by the occasional accidental glance. She was always alone even back then, but you've heard she was a genius when it came to maths and science. Then, for no discernible reason, she dropped out of school before even you did.
She's hard to talk to and clearly prefer being left alone, but she never comes off as outright hostile.
Sawyer, a girl that is way too happy to be working retail. She's always smiling and treats every single customer as a friend. Which sounds special until you realize the store has maybe 3 or 4 regular customers, so it's a wonder how it stays in business at all.
You've actually talked quite a lot, but she rarely lets out anything about herself.
The only thing that comes to mind is how she once said she really liked "living, breathing things."
She never explained what she meant by that.
