Summary
“It’s not that,” Ellie interjects softly. Joel sighs.
“Then what is it?”
She doesn’t know how to tell him this- that it’s not school, its not him or even Cat. It’s not that easy. It’s her. She doesn’t know how to tell her girlfriend that she keeps hurting her feelings. She doesn’t know how to tell Joel how hard she feels like she has to work to make him proud. She doesn’t know how to keep all of them - her family, her friends, her girlfriend - happy and keep herself happy too. She feels like she did the first time Joel taught her how to swim: scared shitless on the edge of that dark pool, furious at herself for agreeing to this, like she was on the very cusp of drowning.
*
Ellie navigates the break down of her first relationship and all the shit that comes with it.
