Tessa, on the other hand, was someone who kept herself clean–borderline obsessive.

She insisted on showering once a day.

At first, the station allowed it, but eventually it became too much trouble.

In the end, they just cut her off completely.

Tessa started yelling, “What’s the meaning of this? Who decided we’re not allowed to shower anymore?”
