college was vastly different from high school, from everything max knew back home. sure, there was bad, but most of it was good, and max found himself relaxing into his classes and studies. the weekend brings him and roxanne in the grass of their campus, previously laid beneath a billowing tree, before max stole the pencil she had been studying with. ‘you’re supposed t’take a break on saturdays!’ he says with a laugh, playing keep away from the girl. once roxanne tries to tackle him, max throws the pencil back toward her notebook and instead uses his arms to lift his girlfriend up, gently throwing her over his shoulder and carrying her back toward the tree. ‘see? there’s nothing wrong with having a little bit’ve fun, right?’
