They hadn't spoken since the celebration, but that didn't stop her from taking food to him like before. There was a lot they hadn't spoken about though they had started to, Reese told her to be careful. To be cautious, which had stuck in her mind the whole time walking over there. She held the food with one hand and she knocked, just like usual to drop off the food.
Then things took a somewhat familiar turn.
Hearing him tell her to come in, she did. Shutting the door behind her she walked over and set the food down just like before. Looking over towards him she went to speak, though glancing between the bottle of wine and his knuckles she didn't say anything. Her mind going over again and again what Reese had told her. As if someone else's opinion about Kai suddenly mattered to her.
"Kai? Is everything...Is everything ok?" she asked with a worried tone, walking over to the messiah and after a moment of consideration she would sit down beside him. She didn't care to wait and ask to sit as she was worried, Eury was easily worried of course but she felt this one was a justified worry.
She didn't know what to expect in reply, but she pointed to his bloody knuckles before "What happened?" He didn't necessarily have to tell her, but she wanted to make sure he knew why she was asking this. She then went quiet, as if thinking if she should go or say something more. Maybe finally answer what he had asked at the celebration.
Yes. That's what she'd do, or what she intended but instead the next time she opened her mouth to say this thing she had time to prepare she wouldn't say it. Instead, when she spoke she would say something she didn't think she would, not then at least or ever. Eury went to speak after the silence but instead of her well thought about explanation she said what she probably wanted to say the whole time.
"I still love you, Malachi."
