âYouâre assuming âthose thingsâ havenât eaten your wrangler already,â Aiden answered, putting away the last of the gardening supplies in their place. He had just finished tending to a localâs garden â what was left of it â when he found himself with company. Her offer now was generous, but something still didnât feel right. One palm slid down one of the shedâs counters as he turned to face Winona. âWhat makes you think you can outrun the worms?â
âWell, I have the door open and itâs literally right there,â she said, pointing over in the direction it was. âUnless they eat it in the next couple seconds.â She grumbled and looked back back at him. âI mean, isnât it better than sitting here, waiting to get eaten? Iâd rather try to do something to save myself rather than sit here and wait.âÂ

âDonât you think you may be acting a bitâŠOverdramatic?â Bridgit raised her eyebrows as she suggested. She hoped she wasnât coming off too harsh in asking the girl this, but she had felt her big sister urges instincts kick in with the current situation. She tilted her head before following it up with, âI mean, I get the fear. Giant worms. But they have to be aware and attempting to get this under control right? Iâll come with if you do want to leave, Iâd never pass on a free ride and someone should be there with some knowledge on what to do if you get hurt trying to leave. But it might be best to stay. You know, safety wise.â
âOverdramatic?! Overdramatic?!â she exclaimed, staring at Bridgit in shock. Perhaps she was being a bit overdramatic, but none of this felt right and she wanted to get far away. She wanted to make sure they didnât end up dead, but she also wasnât sure what to do to save themselves. âI mean, yeah, theyâre probably aware, but letâs be real, do they care? The town has like no citizens and if we all disappeared off the map, no one would probably notice.â Winona opened the door and glanced outside, looking to see if there was any movement under the ground. âI just donât want to stay in this little shed and wait for them to get in here and eat us. I feel like a sitting duck.â

âRight? Fucking Gary thinks chasing us around is hard work but I once saw a snot goblin throw his plate of fries onto the table, climb out of his high chair and run straight into a wall so Susanâs deffo the one in need of a break,â she continued freely since the girl had spun it on further thus giving Pen the chance to embrace all the crazy. âDo you think it was his idea? Or is he stressing out that some asshole popped up? Is he slithering around down there all âhow dare you visit the upstairs people? Theyâre full of germs.ââ
âWe need to find Susan and tell her we support her and want only good things for her. Gary needs to chill out and grow up,â she said with a laugh. âOh, the whole worm thing? I donât think it was Garyâs idea to come out into the world. I think he wanted to stay and mind his own business, but the oil rig was interrupting his sleep so he decided to check out what the hell was happening and stop it. Thatâs why heâs so mad right now.âÂ

âIâm sure thatâs not true! Iâd eat that, and compliments to the chef. He makes something drab look so good. I peeped at the ingredients in the kitchen once, and I still donât get how they come out looking like that.â Noah pointed at the dish. âPeople need to enunciate better.âÂ
âYeah, youâd think theyâd want to eat this anyway. It looks delish. I guess some people really donât have taste,â she said. âOh well, if you want it, itâll be in the kitchen while I tell the chef the guests didnât want it and get their right order.âÂ

âIâm not from herâ at all and frankly this service this is such bullâŠÂ âspecially with that shit happening!â She gestured to the disturbed ground outside the window where the worm things had decided to take up residence. âI donât even think we can leave the building right nowâŠâ
âBring it up with someone important and maybe theyâll give a shit,â she said, not really caring much about the cell issue. Sheâd gotten used to living off the grid in Perfection, but sometimes she wanted something different. âWell, if we canât leave the building and thereâs no cell service, we can always see if the phone in the back works? Itâs a landline and more reliable than your cell.âÂ

âI like to pretend itâs not happening until I have to actually face them.â Gwen says, giving a half hearted smile. If she was referring to their friends in town, or her older brothers and their attempts to contact the youngest Scotts.Â
âNo matter, howâs life?â She asks casually.Â
âOh, you know, the usual,â Winona said with a shrug of her shoulders. âJust trying to not get eaten alive at the moment and also go to work and pretend thereâs not monsters in town. An average day in Perfection, it seems.âÂ

âI am not about to stay here and get fucking eaten by those things,â Winona said, opening the shedâs door and looking outside. She hated that she was stuck here after theyâd been chased by the worms into this random shed, and all she wanted was to get far away from here and get somewhere else. âIâm sure I can make it to my wrangler and we can get the hell out of here. Itâs filled up with gas and you have no idea how fast Iâll drive that jeep. You can come with me, or stay here. I donât care either way.âÂ

   ââ I lost my last pair of contacts to the worms⊠and Iâm guessing thereâs no way to get a replacement hereâŠÂ right ?  ââ Milesâ eyes are very wide, but thatâs probably from the blinding blur all around him as he tries not to make himself sick. He tries his best to squint and make sure that he isnât talking to a worm or a cacti.
âI donât really think thereâs any options for that right now,â Winona answered. âI think youâll have to drive to Bixby if you want new contacts. Or just wear your glasses?â She shrugged her shoulders. Sheâd gotten used to having to drive forever to get prescriptions, and she was certainly going to keep her glasses around just in case she ended up in a similar situation to him.Â

âDonât you just love that thereâs absolutely NO service in this damn town? First, the damn worms and now my cell is acting up.â
âI mean, thereâs really never been service in town. Trust me, Iâve complained about it many, many times. Iâd suggest going to the inn and youâll have better service there.â

âSoâŠwhatâs cooking, good looking? I mean, Iâm just asking because that looks really good and Iâm a curious guy. Got the nose of a bloodhound, if you know what I mean!â
Her eye roll was already beginning before he could even finish his first sentence. âMhm.â She glanced down at the food she was carrying to take back to the kitchen after some random visitor in town complained about it not being their order. âDonât know. Youâll have to ask the chef what he cooks because all I do here is wait on people and bring out wrong orders. Itâs a hobby of mine, truly.â

âI was thinking,â she started after the noise of pitter patter had reached through her earbuds in between a song, âdo you think they have names? Our worms, yâknow like â âdonât start with me today, Susan. I had a long day terrorising the upstairs people.ââÂ
âOh, Iâm fucking sure they do. Then Susan gets all mad at Gary for sassing her, and she starts going off about how sheâs trying to keep their nest clean and take care of the baby worms while heâs able to at least love the nest,â Winona said with a laugh. âI bet the worm mayor has a lot on his hands right now too.âÂ

   Itâs only been a few weeks but Charlie already knows the in-and-outs of Walterâs. Not that there was much selection. This time something catches her off guard on her journey through town. Just down the road had been a small gathering of people alongside a police car. Efforts to hear what they were talking about from a distance had been futile so she nears the other person upon entering the store, grabbing something from a stall beside them - chowder? Gross. Sheâll glance at the ingredients and pretend to be interested purely for the sake of striking conversation though.Â
    âSo whatâs all the commotion about?â
Winona walked past a crowd around a police car, glancing over at them, and then quickly continuing her way to Walter Changâs. She didnât want to spend too much time around them as all she wanted was to get a snack during her lunch break. She walked into the store and grabbed herself a bag of chips when she noticed the other woman speaking to her. She glanced up at her, and then out the window where the people were. âDonât know,â Winona answered. âI didnât really pay much attention when I walked by, but I think something weird was going on? Not entirely sure. Iâm sure theyâll make some town announcement about how weâre getting a brand spankinâ new police car so it can sit in a parking lot while the cops eat food and gossip.âÂ

âșÂ ABOUT
Winona has rarely left Perfection Valley, and most of her life has been spent in the small town. Sheâs left the town a few times to visit family out of town or go on vacations every couple years, but itâs not very often that sheâs left the town.Â
She grew up on a ranch that has been in her momâs family for generations. Her mom inherited the ranch, while her siblings all left Perfection Valley for other places. She spent most of her time on the ranch, and her mom homeschooled her for the first few years until she went to the local public school for the last four years.Â
Sheâs never been sure what sheâs even supposed to do with a high school education, because thereâs really not much in Perfection for her to do and thereâs no way sheâll ever go to college. For now, sheâs focused on trying to figure out what sheâs even doing with her life.
Winona spends a lot of her time fucking around town and trying to find anything fun to do. She threw a lot of parties in school in an old barn that her family no longer uses. She still does that sometimes. Luckily for her, people in town donât ID when people are buying alcohol, so sheâs still able to purchase alcohol for herself and anyone else.Â
She works as a waitress, but she isnât exactly the best employee. She shows up late a lot, and she also skips work a lot. Thereâs not exactly a lot of options for waitress though, so her boss keeps her around for now.Â
