Louisa knew everything. "Yeah, he kissed Vashti. Who has a boyfriend by the way and probably got jarred by the liplock." Vashti was more of a shy person. Well, she was definitely shier and politer than Louisa so... "He was a jerk." The girl concluded, stretching her legs and throwing her torso to the back, lying down on the grass. The sky wouldn't hurt her eyes at this time of the day.
Adam's words of wisdom made sense to her. A lot. "Fear of commitment," she repeated, staring up at the sky. "That's very possible. I think..." She turned her head to look at him, "..that people who don't like commitments should not involve themselves with any kind of relationships." Back to staring at the sky, "Like my father. Why marry a woman and have a kid if he was too coward to be a father?" Shifting the blame from Joao to the main source of her demanding a promise from her boyfriend.
Adam had to admit he couldn't stop his mouth from falling open slightly after finding out who Dallin had kissed even if he'd tried.
"Um...wow...that's...wow," Adam said, slightly at a loss for words. Of the little that he knew Vashti after helping Louisa and her through their problems last term, Vashti didn't strike him as the type that would do something like that. Although perhaps Dallin had just completely taken the girl by such surprise that she wasn't really sure how to react.
"Well...how did Vashti respond?" Adam asked, wondering if she instantly regretted the action, or was too surprised to really have a proper response at the time...
Seeing that Louisa had laid back on the ground to look up at the sky, Adam joined her, listening as she expressed her thoughts about commitment.
"I have often asked the same questions of my parents...well...parent now I suppose," Adam replied softly.
"Fear really is a powerful thing," Adam said, keeping his eye on a cloud that was drifting above them.
"In some ways I think it might be one of the most powerful forces in the world."
