Mary Jane and Holden's Journey

Holden turned out to be a good companion for Mary Jane, in fact, she couldn’t have picked a better person to take along for the ride. He was witty, he had a funny laugh, and most importantly he shared the same strange quirks as Mary Jane.

“So tell me, why are you out here in the middle of nowhere riding around on a spirit journey?” Holden said, arm dangling out the passenger side window, his face upturned to the bright sun.

“I don’t know,” she said, keeping her eyes on the road and not on Holden’s smiling features, “I guess I just snapped or something. I felt like I needed to leave everything behind to really see how I felt about it. I guess it doesn’t matter anymore.”

“So, you did have a boyfriend,” he said with a smirk.

“Did,” Mary Jane clarified. They both laughed as they crossed into Arizona.
