But rather than tell her one hundred percent truth, she opted for a stretch of the truth. A major stretch. "I guess," she paused, before asking Val the same. "Are you?" Her friend certainly looked happy to be back. Maybe it had to do with Evan. Maybe. Kinsay would've asked about it, but she wasn't really feeling up for talking much right now.
Which is why it was such a relief when Emma came to join their side of the table. Emma and Val could be chatty together and then Kins could just, kind of, exist. It was perfect.
So when Emma sat down and asked for help with her tie, Kins happily came to the rescue. It was nice to have something to do with her hands. She had been feeling all sorts of antsy before. "I wish we didn't have to dress in uniform for the feasts," she mused as she undid Emma's tie entirely and started from step 1. Kinsay was an expert when it came to ties, even though she didn't like the ones they were made to wear. It was kind of funny. The safety of the school uniform used to be something Kinsay felt grateful for, but ever since she had taken a keen interest in fashion, school robes just got in the way of all good things. Like, hello!? They were ancient! She was sure they've kept the same ones since her grandmother was Headmistress!
And, for the record, she did see the way Darren smiled over at her, but because she didn't feel like acknowledging it, she quickly looked the other way (and only felt a little guilty about it afterwards). She didn't manage to escape Cooper's glance over though. Ugh. Maybe she should've just skipped the feast all together.
