"Take a guess at why I'm out here, dumbass," Karina snapped. And, okay, she normally wouldn’t have called him a dumbass right off the bat but then she also normally wouldn’t have started a conversation with such a blunt go away either so today was fired. "Same reason you want to punch today. But whatever, it’s not my fault you decided to show up here and get lost and you’ve got some nerve expecting me to help you."

Well, he did.

"Punching today wouldn't help anything either," she added. "Especially if this lasts longer than a day."

God, that was a horrifying thought.

"Can we pretend I didn’t wonder that? That's a curse, right? Think something and the island does it? The island is awful."
