"Everything is so... flat." Denille said stupidly as she looked around her new neighborhood. She looked around at the muted desert where even the smallest sign of life seemed to have given up. The plant life was shrubs that were half cooked by the heat and where there should have been a lawn, a mess of white rocks laid glistening in the sun. Even the sky looked stretched thin, like the sun had ironed it smooth. She’d moved from Riverside, where at least there were hills, but here in Barstow, everything felt baked and brittle.

I like the pace and energy of this! I had made my submission of the same awkward moment later hoping no one had done it by the time I actually posted it, but this is good

Lol. That's awkward. Well done.
Oof. That’s a painfully relatable experience. Then you’re left to run your hand through hair or something to act like you weren’t waving at them in the first place. 🤣 Congrats on the Top Story.
Laighing out loud! I have done this so, so many times, it's embarrassing how many! Or replied to someone when they were on the phone! Brilliant! Congrats on Top Story!
