Opening to a fresh page, he went to put graphite to paper before hearing the other person address him. In a familiar voice.

Head whipped to the side and he blinked a bit seeing who it was. He'd heard she'd been coming back this term, surprised that she was, but hadn't yet run into her. He'd never felt the years of tense silence as much as he did in this moment, actually seeing her again after the adoption had fallen through. "...Hey." There was a lot more to say he was sure, and he'd been trying to figure out what to say when this inevitably happened but... he still didn't know.

So much he did not know lately. It was frustrating to the want to be know it all.

"Are you.. enjoying being back?"



Welp.

She would have time to figure out later if her starting the conversation that way had been the best course of action, but right now she had to focus on what was happening.

She didn’t move, as if her moving would startle him, like he was some sort of deer. She didn’t want to spook him and have him leave, and not get to talk to him at all. Solana was so still, she was almost holding her breath. She had gotten used to making herself small and taking up as little space as she could.. and being very still was one of her tactics.

His reply back to her got a soft nod.. as they both sort of tried to figure out where to start.. she had so many things to apologize for.. when..

Huh.. well that wasn’t what she would have started with.. but he was talking. Her still stance didn’t waver as she answered.

“Yeah, it’s good to be back. ” She answered lightly. She wasn’t sure if it was good to be back or not. But deep dives into her psyche was not an icebreaker. “How are you? How was your summer?” She had only gathered bits and pieces from her weekly lunches with his mom.
