This was a very “real” telling. I like it. The only hangup I had, was the character’s name. (And, I am the last person who should point out anything about character names.) I just had trouble making myself not say, “Kayla.” Nothing wrong with this piece overall, just letting you know my thoughts. ;)
(Just to add.. I do love knowing her thoughts. Sometimes I would rather know what the character is “thinking” than saying.)
