closed starter for @cemresunar at montara state beach.
The weather in Half Moon Bay was warming up, but not quite enough for a beach day without a little something extra to keep them toasty. Hot chocolate may have seemed a little out of season for most, but Lola used any excuse to indulge in one of her favorite treats. Especially from the beach bodega in Montara. Even when they were out of the toppings.
"They're out of marshmallows, which is a huge bummer, but they did upsize us at no charge and added extra chocolate drizzle, so.." She counted it even and hoped Cemre would, too.
There was a lot for the two women to talk about. Life moved quickly these days, and she barely had time to keep those she loved updated between work and school. After Lola settled onto their blanket, nestled amongst soft, sand dunes, she leaned into Cemre and asked, "Does life get easier after thirty, or..?" Laughter followed and while her question was mostly a joke, part of Lola really wondered if she'd ever stop feeling like everything was seconds from falling apart.
