Sister, Sister
Who: Gwen and Farrah What: Farrah hunts down her little sister to force her into their first face-to-face meeting When: Monday Where: The parking lot outside of Gwen's boyfriend's apartment
There was a tenseness to Farrah Jordan that was not usually there. It echoed in her walk, the muscles of her shoulders and thighs tense and tight, as if perpetually ready to sprint off at a moment's notice, as she walked toward the apartment complex where some clever finagling on the computer had told her she could find her sister. She wasn't afraid, not really, though she was uncharacteristically nervous. Since discovering that she had a little sister, apparently a byproduct of one of her father's infidelities while with her mother that had been tossed into an orphanage soon after being born, Farrah had felt apprehensive, agitated, and most of all, guilty. How had she not known about Gwen before then?
Her attempts at meeting her had gone unnoticed, ignored, or generally been rebuffed, and Farrah couldn't really blame her for that, either. Gwen did not know her, did not know that she could trust her, and had apparently been through enough without adding Farrah's issues to the long, long list of shit to deal with on a daily basis, but Farrah had to see her. She was her sister, and her mother had raised her to believe that family came before everything. On top of that, she was simply another victim of their father and his selfish ways, and the blame for any sort of issues or trouble she had could be placed squarely on their father's head, or at least that was how Farrah saw it.
Her heels clicked but still managed to sound muted on the cement sidewalk, and despite the fact that many of the little green squares of grass outside of each apartment were loaded with toys and lawn chairs, a clear indication of children, there weren't many out and about for some reason. Good then. Farrah would have enough to deal with with attempting to get her sister to talk to her, as opposed to also worry about plucking wild herdlings from on top of her car or something.
