Sounds like ya need ta communicate open an' honestly.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

What if they don't know if they're happy or not?

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[holesomelanguage]

They gotta work that out fer themselves. Ya can support 'em, but ya can't make that decision fer 'em.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

I know.

[ but she clearly doesn't like it ]

[ Reaching up to squish her cheek. ]

World's rough, ain't it.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

[ cheek squished! ]

I don't like it.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[holesomelanguage]

Sorry ta say darlin' but a lot o' things in life are gonna go a way ya don't like. Yer place in it's ta decide what you wanna do 'bout it.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

What do I even do?

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[holesomelanguage]

Yer gonna haveta do a lot o' thinkin'. 'Bout what you want, an' what yer willin' ta do. An' what's most important to ya.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

What's most important is that they're happy.

But I don't know what I'd do if I wasn't part of it.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[holesomelanguage]

... Reckon this part where I ain't the best ta advise ya on it, 'cause I've made a decision like that once.

Yer heart's most important ta ya, jus'... know you ain't gonna be alone after, whatever happens.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

How do you know that?

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[holesomelanguage]

I'll be there as yer friend, won't I?

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

Hehe... that's true.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[holesomelanguage]

I won't lie. Losin' everything important to ya hurts a lot. It takes a lot to work through it. Hell, ya might still be working through it years later.

But good things could happen too. You could have solid support from where ya didn't expect it, or make new friends who'll become yer new everythin'.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

Everything's really hard to replace.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[holesomelanguage]

Don't... think o' it as replacin'. Or yer gonna get yerself hung up on yer past, comparin' every lil thing. Yer lettin' go o' the old, an' findin' new, that's all.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

That's something to think about.

Thanks, Nick.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[holesomelanguage]

Dang shame I can't offer ya somethin' more hopeful. But yer a tough lady.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

[ gently stroking his hair ]

You're giving me way too much credit.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[holesomelanguage]

Ain't no becomin' an idol without steelin' up.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

The one thing that motivated me is the thing I might have to let go of.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[holesomelanguage]

... Jus' think real good on it. Do what'll leave ya without regrets.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

[ smooching his forehead. ]

I'll think about it. Thanks, Nick.

Ya know I got yer back, J.
