Nodding silently, Jake kicked at the floor, causing miniature puffs of dust to float up briefly into the air. "It's ttthhe ruh-right thhhing fuh-fer me," he nodded looking up again, feeling bad about making Reese upset to any degree.
But he was definitely holding her to that promise.
But for now... "Whhhh-whhy are yyyyou going to Guhh-greece?"
Innocent enough question...
Reese, who was trying to forget about the idea of standing in the same spot Helios was at, blew the little puffs of dust away from her face, and then nodded her head slowly when Jake talked. "Okay, then. That settles it, doesn't it? If you think it's the right thing, I'm going to support your decision," she stated. As much as she would like to see Jake at the house, she was going through with what just came out of her mouth. She was going to support his decision, because that's what sisters do, right? They support their brothers with decision making...right?
She shrugged. "Torin asked me? I mean...yeah, Torin asked me. I thought it would be fun to go visit a place I've never seen before," she answered. "I'm planning on going sight seeing, shopping with Tammy, and I'm planning to hang out at the beach with all my friends." She was actually planning on spending most of her time at the beach, but was it like she really needed that sun? She was already tan as it was.
