Appaaaarently, Ellie wasn't much sympathy from this girl tonight. She rolled her eyes a little. "Look, I know this is just your personality and you can't help but be slightly condescending all the time... but can you please try for a little more sympathy?" Ellie was heartbroken after all. She deserved a little bit of pity. Maybe.
But, woahwoahwoah. Huh? "I think you might be right about it." Ellie's head popped up and she eyed Louisa. "I don't believe that for a second," she told her. Louisa never agreed with any of Ellie's logic.
What? Why was Ellie eying Louisa's hand? Yeah her fingernails were ragged and all but she definitely wasn't getting a manicure any time soon soo...
Oh. Condescending? Louisa frowned a bit. "
I'm sorry. I really don't want to lie to you, Ellie. I am very sad about the whole situation and you both know what my opinion is on the matter." Louisa had taken her hand away from Ellie's arm by then. "
I'm very flattered that you'd wanted to talk to me, of all people." A genuine smile was drawn on the girl's face and her cheeks flushed of gratitude. "
It means a lot."
So. Sympathy? Let's try this one more time. "
So tell me Ellie. What's happened?" Funny Vashti was not around to annoy Louisa to go to bed now. Heh. The head girl probably had more important matters to her. Well, at least she wouldn't have time to make Louisa feel guilty about her detention and all.
