I grew up by the ocean, but my favorite place to be in the summer is in the
mountains. Surrounded by nature, listening to the leaves move as the breeze
flutters through, birds singing in the distance. The mountains have always
felt more like home than the beach. Plus, there’s too much sand on the
beach.

Unfortunately, I’m sitting in a cramped seat, flying through the sky in a
giant metal tube. Maybe now would be a good time to mention that while I
love the mountains, I don’t like flying. I still can’t fathom why someone
thought it would be an excellent idea to hurtle through the sky at light speed
when there are other ways to travel.
But I’m on this death trap because I
didn’t have time to drive to Colorado for this hike. Fiona, a good friend
from college, reached out two days ago and told me that her sister bailed on
a hiking trip. She asked if I wanted the spot. Since I’d just lost my job, I
thought, why not? I booked a plane ticket, and now I’m trying not to think
about the fact that I hate flying.
Look at me, twenty-four and genuinely thriving. Jobless, carless, and by
the end of the summer, I’ll be homeless—well, that’s not true. I can live in
my parents’ basement, but I don’t want to do that.
“Are you heading somewhere special?” The older woman in the seat
next to me breaks up my spiraling thoughts. I’m fine; it’s all going to be
okay. If anything, this hike is going to change everything for me.
“I’m going on a hike,” I say. “You?” Mom would kill me if she heard
me ask a question like that, as a single word. But I don’t care about being
super formal right now. I’m in my threadbare sweats that I’ve had for nearly
seven years and a ratty T-shirt I stole from a roommate in college. So yeah,
today, I am not the epitome of class.
“Heading home.” The older woman sighs as if this is the worst thing in
the world. “I was in California to spend time with my daughter, but now
I’m going home.” Her voice is a little rough around the edges. I wonder
what type of life she’s lived. “Where are you hiking? I’m not much of a
hiker myself.”
“Longs Peak.” My chest grows warm at the thought. Though nothing
about this summer is going the way I hoped it would, at least I finally get to
hike the one mountain, I always said I’d hike back when I was in college. I
went to University of Colorado where I majored in real estate. But my
favorite part about living in Colorado was being in the mountains. In fiveish hours, I’ll be in the mountains again. Tomorrow, I’ll be hiking.
“Maybe you’ll meet a nice boy,” the woman beside me mutters. I glance
at her, and she’s blatantly staring at my bare left hand. I tuck it under my
thigh.
“I’m happily single,” I tell her. While I miss the feeling of being
someone’s future—and being so sure about it—I genuinely am happily
single.
