They head to Kristi's apartment

“Thanks! That would be awesome”, answered Andrea.

‘She’ managed to make the quarter of a mile walk down the coast and up some exterior stairs to a second-floor apartment with a balcony and rooftop veranda, Kristi explaining she had the place to herself after moving out of her parent’s place at 18, her now being 19 going on 20.

The pad was chic and stylish, Kristi’s tastes being modern, classy, and definitely feminine.

In the living room was a large white backdrop and a tripod-mounted camera.

“Oh you like do photography?”, asked Andrea as she submerged her swollen feet sans footwear into the bowl of ice water.

“Yeah, I’m an amateur, but I’m hoping to become a fashion photographer. You know those big photos and displays around The Spot? That’s all me, hun”, Kristi elaborated.

Andrea gushed some more, and listened to Kristi talk about fashion, which ‘she’ admitted ‘she’ didn’t know too much about.

“Huh, could’ve had me fooled, by your looks and the way you come across I would’ve pegged you for the fashionista type. Well, maybe you are, and you just don’t know it yet!”, Kristi mused.

The two began chatting about the town and what it was to live there, where Andrea was from.

Andrea managed to keep the details close to ‘her’ actual life as Andrew, talking about how ‘her’ supposed new town was so similar to ‘her’ old one and even giving details on her dates with Brian.

Andrew may have spent too long in Andrea’s headspace, but he found he got along so magnificently with Kristi that Andrea didn’t feel the need to hold back any of the gory details of ‘her’ and Brian’s intimacy, giggling along with Kristi about the size of Brian’s python.

“You know, I got this new camera, and I’ve been meaning to try it out. Would you mind if I took some pictures of you to break it in?”, Kristi asked Andrea.
