"How was the plane trip?" her mother asked.
Caitlin was motioning for her to hurry. She pointed across the room to eerie-looking shadowa dancing across the windows.
"The plane?" Vix asked.
"Yes, the plane," her mother repeated.
Caitlin threw a towel over her head and walked toward Vix, arms outstretched like a zombie. Sweetie started barking, excited by Caitlin's antics. "The place was okay," she told her mother. Already it felt like ages ago. Her first trip on a plane. She wondered if all the firsts in her life would go by so quickly, and be forgotten just as quickly.

ed: Breezed through this one in 6hours, it had it's moments but the prose is forgettable and there was an abundance of sexualisation on everything. Not great, but alright.
