It doesn't take long for me to get sick of snorkeling.

I love the water, and the fish are beautiful. Still, I wouldn't call it fun when I'm accompanied at all times by a flirty realtor and Judah, who clearly doesn't want to give me a chance to work up the nerve to employ the diversionary tactic I was considering on the boat.

After a quarter of an hour, when Nolan touches my arm to draw my attention to some coral and Judah "accidentally" smacks him in the face with his flipper, I'm done. I wave to both of them and swim off toward the beach, ripping off my flippers and goggles as soon as the water is deep enough to stand up in and stomp out of the waves like the world's grumpiest mermaid.

In my first stroke of good luck, since I got off the plane, the beach is empty, and I'm afforded a few moments of peace as I walk over the hot sand to the table where I left my bag.

If I have to endure one more minute of Judah's jealousy, Nolan's flirting, or my mother and Kennedy's completely transparent attempts to shove the two of us together, I'm going to burst. It's too much, too many feelings, too many people. I'm emotionally drained from my panic attack yesterday, my sister's father-in-law telling me he wants to cum inside me, and trying to figure out how to tell my parents I didn't get into Harvard.

It's not like that's my only option. I have acceptances from three other medical schools I applied to as backups. If I want to become a doctor, I still can. I hate to admit it, but Judah's words have gotten under my skin. He asked me questions I've never dared ask myself, ones that the denial letter is now forcing me to confront.

Do I want this? Do I really want this?

No.

I've asked myself that question over and over again today and keep coming up with the same answer. If nobody else factored into this decision but me…. No. I wouldn't go. Everything about being a doctor sounds terrifying to me, I don't love it. I'm not even particularly interested in it. I have to figure out what I want, but what else am I supposed to do? Who do I want to be, if not another Doctor Bradley?

I love working with the kids at the daycare, but could I do that every day?

"Issy." My hands pause, buried in my bag in search of my sunscreen, as I hear the sounds of soft footsteps over the sand.

Judah.

"Go away. I need a minute," I don't bother to look back at him. "And don't call me that," I add as an afterthought.

I find the bottle of lotion and pour some into my hand, rubbing it furiously over my chest and shoulders. I know he hasn't left, but I don't acknowledge him, waiting for him to give me something else to snarl at him over.

"Let me help." I didn't
