"Only because I didn't fucking realize how bad it was for me." Her hands were fist and her eyes burned. Was she crying? She felt water on her face. Yeah, she was.

🌀

Oh God, he made her cry. "...I'm sorry...." He approached her with arms outstretched, trying to hug her.

2015-04-26 01:34:50

●

She took a couple steps back. "..Sorry doesn't cut it Cale." She moved around him and rushed out of the alley.

🌀

He stood there with head bowed and fists clenched. He'd kill that asshole. He'd kill him if it was the last thing he did.

Terezi took a few steps before she broke into a run. Now? She just wanted to get home as quick as possible....as if any of her problems had solved her before by going there.

🌀

I wandered around, trying to find the building again. They all looked alike. This might be an issue. However, I remembered hers had some kind of banner on the front, so I looked for that. Eventually I tracked it down, remembering the way back to the cafe.

●

Eventually, Terezi made it back to the crowds, and slowed her run into a walk. She wiped her eyes on her sleeve. The last thing she needed was for someone to question about what happened to her and why she was crying.

2015-04-26 02:04:05

🌀

I didn't go in. I didn't have the key, after all, and besides, it was kind of nice to just watch people rush by.

2015-04-26 02:10:03

●

Soon, Terezi made it back, and Seculus was at the door. "Sorry if you been waiting for so long." She apologized. "I got caught up in something."

2015-04-26 02:16:39

🌀

"No, it's fine, I've only been here for a few minutes." Her eyes were red. What? "....are you alright?"

2015-04-26 02:23:36

●

"Yeah, I'm fine." She exhaled. She started to unlock the door. "Like I said, I got caught up in something."

2015-04-26 02:27:13

🌀

I reached down and brushed her hair out of her face. "....you've been crying, of course you're not fine. What happened?"

2015-04-26 02:32:35

●

She looked away from him. "...Cale." She finally admitted. "I ran into Cale."

2015-04-26 02:35:08

🌀

Cale? Ah, right, she hated him with a burning passion. But what on Earth could he have done to actually make her /cry/? "...I'm sorry."

2015-04-26 02:37:43

●

"It's not your fault." She looked back at him. "I practically get into these arguments every time I see him, I'm used to it by now." It wasn't exactly a lie.

2015-04-26 02:39:55

🌀

I frowned. "Dear, I've seen you argue with him and it's never driven you to tears before. Did he try to do something to you? Or just hit a nerve?" If he'd tried something, I planned to get in on this arm-ripping trend.

2015-04-26 02:42:32

●

"Yeah. A nerve." A really big nerve that nerve went away because he's a PRICK. "You don't need to worry about it, trust me."

2015-04-26 02:45:24

🌀

As if there was anything I didn't worry about. I sighed. "...well, it might cheer you up slightly to know I received a potential job offer."

2015-04-26 02:47:41

●

She smiled. "Really? That's great!" Yes, it did indeed cheer her up slightly. Though, she was a bit surprised he got one so soon.

2015-04-26 02:50:34

🌀

"I'm still not entirely certain at the purpose of the business, but it's a place called the Rose Garden Cafe." An odd name for a cafe, but nothing if not attractive.

2015-04-26 02:53:52

●

"Seems like you'll be waiting tables or something." She suggested. "I'm not sure, but I can guarantee you'll find out next time you go there."

2015-04-26 03:00:20

🌀

"If not, then they need to work on their business plan a bit. In any case, food and services! You were correct!" I smiled, pushed the door open, and held it for her.

2015-04-26 03:03:13

●

"See, I told you!" She stepped inside. "It's the best place to start for someone who is as friendly as you are."

2015-04-26 03:06:18

🌀

"Ah-haha....uh...." Friendly? I'd definitely never been described that way, even by myself. Especially by myself. "...I wouldn't know if that statement's /entirely/ true, but....did you see anything interesting on your walk?" Aside from Cale, of course.

"Just a now dead drug addict in an alleyway." She stated. Should she be throwing her vampireness in his face? Ah, who cares. No like he could do anything about it.
