Title: Mess Of Frustration
Fandom: Christy



Fairlight sat on the hard bench, the same spot Lulu sat during school hours, staring at the book open on the table. It was just a grumbled mess of frustration. She could tell Christy was too becoming frustrated over the lack of improvement coming from her eldest pupil. Fairlight wanted a way to connect not only to her kids who could read the words, write notes, and make a grasp at life outside the Cove. A life that she and Jeb both knew would be better and more fulfilling. It was more than that, she wanted to feel close to some; to have someone to share secrets to and able to trust they won't tell another. In her youth she had a few friends that she trusted above all others, they all faded into different directions, now with kids, husbands, chores; friendships don't remain for adults it seemed. Looking at Christy she thinks it could be different, there could be a balance of fun and duty.

"Miz Christy would you care to take a walk with me?" With a smile, a nod and an accepting answer Fairlight reached one desire. The ten commandments could wait.
