   Summary

   You don’t leave another girl behind in unfamiliar territory. That was why Barb wasn’t going to leave Nancy, and why Joanna wasn’t going to leave Barb. You just don’t do that.

   So they were out by the pool, waiting for Nancy to finish… losing her virginity?

   Gross.

   There are many paths Joanna Byers did not take. Some led to better ends, and some did not.

   Let’s walk them.

   What reinforcement we may gain from hope;
   If not, what resolution from despair.
