Introduction

She strides to each place in her motorcycle with a camera strapped to her shoulders. A tomboy who earned her place scraping by outdoors. She's confident even more so than ever before and upfront to whomever she comes across. To you, she's a stranger, a coded mystery to unravel. Her dreams aren't of grandeur or pure imagination, it is of simple freedom. But you'll soon learn beneath the layers is a myriad of complicated emotions that drives her to keep moving.

Backstory

When she was young, she had peeked over the desk in her father's law office as he secured a critical business deal. Her father displayed excellent business acumen and from the tips of ears she faintly heard an agreement. She wasn't tuned into the conversation at all, but her eyes looked out the window toward her beautiful home Berlin. She didn't realized it then, but her life would change forever. Soon after the deal was settled, it was a one way trip to the U.S.A where her father would become the defense lawyer for a large company in San Jose and her mother was networked as a supervisor of a finance firm.

Once there, she was enrolled into a private school. She struggled with the language at first, but her parents hired a tutor for her and she was forced to constantly speak English by her environment. As a result, she quickly picked up English. She considered her work boring and often caught herself looking out the window just as she had in Berlin. Her eyes often landed on the basketball court though where the boys had played, so she decided to join in. They had briefly mocked her for being a girl that's unable to play at their level. Their laughter died when she walked up close to them, sweat poured from their brows as they realized she was taller than all of them. She then destroyed them on the basketball field.

By the time, High School came along, her parents constant pressure towards academics felt meaningless. Surprisingly, she joined the tennis team where she had met friends that she genuinely vibed with. From that group, it introduced her to a friend group, and without noticing she became popular. There were about 10 or so people in that group, she doesn't remember everyone there, but they were good folk. Her parents barred her from going to parties, so out of spite, she had saved up her allowance and navigated through Craigslist. Her eyes landed on a beat-up motorcycle that seemed liked it survived any kind of hell. She had utilized the business strategy she had learned listening to her father, start with a compliment and then convince them that she was the person for the bike. Using this strategy, she negotiated the seller to lower the price that she could afford. Of course, she had to fix up the bike afterwards. She now had an opportunity to slip by her parents unnoticed and hid the motorcycle in the depths of the garage. Highschool passed pretty quickly and it seemed like she was destined that she was going to be sent to law school after graduation. The idea didn't fully sit with her at the time and she had arguments with her parents about it.

During a walk one evening, she fumed from the aftermath from her parent so called 'serious talk' whom which they seemed very disappointed. Though, she had eventually calmed down and started to enjoy the nature, until a raccoon scratched her, "Hey you bitch!" She exclaimed with fury and took off after the raccoon with murderous intent. She bounced off the round belly of an old bearded man with glasses named Don Tello. He was unfazed handling his camera with an iron grip. The lens was aimed at stylistic graffiti on the wall, a historical remnant of a previous civil movement. It was only after taking a picture that he had looked at her and spoke in a deep grainy voice, "50 bucks if you catch that squirrel." Irene quickly corrected him that it was a raccoon. The Don laughed heartily, more than he ever did in ages, and said, "Enough about that, ever considered a fashion magazine, you'd look good with purple highlights." he said after he scrutinized her with his eye for style. Irene's face was still scrunched up with annoyance, "What's that supposed to mean?" She snapped, but Tello responded, "Let me take a picture and show you what i'm talking about". She didn't realize at the time that they would become good friends after that interaction.

Senior exams rolled by and she was bored, so she decided to take a break. It was likely the last time she'd have an opportunity to find solace in her secret spot. She rode out on her motorcycle and went to a hill with a hefty case of beer. Once she arrived, she sat down on a field of grass and cracked open a booze. She didn't have a phone at the time, but the night had illuminated the moon blue and stars sprinkled the sky. She tilted her head down and looked at the bustling city, in the background brief flashes of white light made her brown eyes glisten. She felt excitement for the first time in ages and went back to home and drew up a map of where she could go. Weeks later, she found out Don Tello had passed away with a disease that he had been battling with his aged body. She was the only one at his death bed and he had entrusted her with his camera. One thing happened another and graduation came, she didn't need permission for what she wanted to do next. She hopped on her bike, wallet full of cash and began her journey.
