Sie said you'd be the one to ask :o There was something in his lap that she could see the edges of, but it was impossible to tell what it was from where she was standing. Besides, she was much more concerned about how he would react to her than whatever was in his lap. Kaena had made it seem like everything would be fine, and while Rikka wanted to believe that she wasn't going to put all her faith into it. The woman was trying to be positive though, trying to make herself believe that all the time that had passed had matured them and made it easier for them to understand one another. As she spoke his head turned to her so quickly that she nearly flinched and it took a moment or two before recognition came to him. Rikka managed a small, hesitant smile. The surprise was obvious in his voice but that wasn't the only thing she detected. She wasn't sure what else was there and when his eyes narrowed it made her nervous. For being the same color their eyes were very different; his were hard and serious while her's were soft. "Yeah, it's me," she answered. "I came back a couple days ago." The fingers of her right hand drummed nervously on the surface of her bag, still unsure as to how this reunion was going to go. |
