During what was probably the last major ski weekend of the season, Tove and Kayla headed up to Mt. Hood, determined to make the most of it.

Especially Tove, who lamented she hadn’t been skiing “since January” when she went with some cousin to Mount Bachelor. The skis in the back of her SUV were her own, but she promised to rent some for Kayla, who continued to claim she knew how to ski – and she loved it.

I’m fucked.

The employee helping her into boots was the first to notice something was wrong. While Tove shot the breeze with a male employee, the woman fitting Kayla’s feet quipped that the black trails were a bit crowded that day. Kayla mentioned that it suited them fine since they wanted to avoid the easier slopes. When the employee kindly reminded her that the black and diamond trails were the hard ones, Kayla swore she had said something different.

Crap, crap, crap.

There were several ways to get out of this without fessing up to an elaborate lie in the name of making Tove like her. Tell her you’ve been skiing before, but it’s been a long time. In truth, Kayla had never been skiing before. The closest she ever got was the Snowpocalypse of 2017 when a neighbor loaned his old skis to Kayla and Grady so they could more easily get to the grocery store and back.

I still remember when my cousin Willy broke his leg, and he was pretty spry in those days. Never quite walked the same after that.”

Was Kayla’s face as frozen as it felt? Or had it turned beet red?

“Ridge Run is fun. Shall we try that one? I didn’t see too many people heading that way.”

“I’m up for anything,” Kayla said through gritted teeth.

Yet when she took one step forward with her poles, one ski slipped out from under her, and she nearly fell in front of a group of people on their way to the lifts.

“You okay?” Tove asked.

“Fine!” Kayla brushed aside her adrenaline. “Whatever trail you wanna do. Let’s do it.”

Tove’s gaze lingered before she firmly turned away, poles digging into the snow. “Let’s stick to Blue today.”

Kayla had no idea what these colors meant. She was afraid to ask. Much like she was slightly afraid of heights – something she didn’t realize about herself until she was sitting next to Tove and they were lifting into the air.

Don’t look down… Didn’t stop Tove from stealing a picture of the slopes below them. Nor did it stop her from snapping a photo of Kayla beside her. Although Kayla tried to smile, her stomach was
