1: A starry night over the Egyptian desert, a road snakes through the desert lit by streetlights. On the horizon is a stern and featureless wall that shows only the tips of a few buildings from Cairo in the distance.
2: Melissa lays a blanket out on the sand-stone walkway of the wall, she’s wearing a gray hoodie, a different day to her first official visit.
Julia (off-panel): Gods… lot more stairs than I remember…
Feel like I was trapped in a hospital for half a year.
3: Huffing, Julia is wheeling a cooler over, she wears a purple blouse and her hair in a french braid.
Melissa (off-panel): I told you I could get it.
Julia: And I… hff... told you I got it…
4: She sits beside Melissa on the blanket, both of them look happy but anxious. Past them, we see the nighttime horizon.
Julia: Aah… that fresh air…
<3 🙂
That is all
The fact they can joke about this is so ADORABLE!
Something I just realized. It’s a little… Different, seeing Julia without some violet in her hair. Of course, she was underground for a bit, so, understandable.
Good point. 😀
Yeah, maybe she stopped dyeing her hair purple, to mark this as a new start in her life.
Same thing with the overall different hair style.
That’s a good observation. 😀
Hope that hairstyle doesn’t stick around, looks aweful
This feels…I mean I’m happy as hell that Julia is back, but something about it feels like there’s a god size boot about to drop.
Wow, Rebecca!
In this page, + in the last page, Mel is the cutest thing! 😀
Please let me know, if you see a girl that looks like her in real life. Ha!
