This is my story for the Open Novella Contest III (2020).

I have been waiting for this moment for so long... since I failed round 1 of the second open novella contest. Let's hope we make it past round 1 this time!

Nothing like a grand contest to drag you out of your grave, am I right?

Summary thus far:

"We woke up and had breakfast on the deck; like we did every morning. Long story short, we're no longer welcome in Toronto.

Well, when you're lost in an unfamiliar place, waiting for someone to come save you... what else you to do than to kill some time?"

Enjoy.

Or don't... who am I to tell you what to do.
