[Roleplay] The Rebuilding - Continuation of The Aftermath

[Beary]

I suddenly perk up.
"Huh? Did I fall asleep?"

 

[Naiad]

I breathe a sigh of relief. ".... I— I thought...." I pull her into a hug. "Never do that again..." I murmur.

 

[Beary]

"Do what? Fall asleep?" I look at him, confused.

 

[Naiad]

I kiss her forehead and smile weakly at her. "... Kind of."

 

[Myst]

I sit down next to Sage. ".... I know that it's hard to forgive him. Hell, I wouldn't forgive him. However, he's here now." I say softly.

I stir awake. I must've dozed off.

I mumble sleepily, "Sai... How will I be able to forgive him? I don't think I can..."

 

[Naiad]

".... Just.... tell him that it's hard for you. He'll understand.
Forgiveness comes with time."

 

[Myst]

"I... guess... but what if I don't want to forgive him? What if I'm scared he'll leave again?" I ask, my voice starting to crack.

 

[Beary]

"Can we watch the movie now? I must've missed some of it."

 

[Naiad]

".... If you don't wish to forgive, then don't." I smile softly. "It's not always easy to move forward, and sometimes it's better not to."

I bite my lip. ".... Even if he leaves, this time around, you won't be alone. You have us."

I nod and rewind the movie.

 

[Myst]

"Thanks for everything." I smile at her.

 

[Beary]

I stay quiet for a while.
"What happened anyway? It was like time just stopped and started again when you were carrying me.."

 

[toxapex]

"Oh, you're awake." I say. "...Should I be concerned with this conversation?" I ask, not sure who they were talking about.

 

[Myst]

I notice Helix in bed beside me. "Whoa... when did you get here?" I ask with a smirk.

 

[Naiad]

I stand up and walk out of the room. "No problem, later."

"... You collapsed."

 

[toxapex]

"When you were sleeping." I say, smiling back.

 

[Beary]

"Collapsed?"

 

[toxapex]

"Oh, bye Sai!" I say with a smile.

 

[Myst]

"Bye..." I say, trying to mask my disappointment.

 

[Naiad]

"Yeah."

 

[Beary]

"It didn't feel like I passed out..I don't even remember closing my eyes."
