WHO: Maddie and Caitie
WHEN: December 13, 2019; afternoon?
WHERE: Their room
WHAT: All the sads and all the hugs.
RATING: Medium, maybe.
CHALLENGE: <3
Caitie’s brother leaving Sing Sing would’ve sucked any way it happened, but the situation was made that much worse by the fact that he hadn’t even bothered telling his sister he was going back to the city. It was irresponsible, careless, and it pissed Maddie off that her friend had to deal with a loss like that. For all she knew, it would be the last time she ever saw her brother and they hadn’t even said goodbye. Whatever feelings Maddie had for her friend, whether it was still friendship or developing into something else, didn’t matter right now. What mattered was being supportive; a shoulder to cry on or an ear to listen if Caitie wanted to bitch. Whatever she needed, Maddie would do her best. Lifting Chicklet and Ducklet out of their box — with the rate the two birds were growing, they didn’t fit in the cage anymore — Maddie walked over and sat the chicken on Caitie’s lap. She let Ducklet roam freely around the room as she perched on the bed beside her friend. “Christmas isn’t gonna completely suck. You’ve still got us. Me and my brothers and sister totally want you to join us for our Christmas dinner and all that stuff. Plus, presents! Presents are still cool, yeah?” She was trying to be cheerful, trying to pull Caitie out of her sour mood, but it felt about as impossible as trying to get Ducklet to stay in one place for more than ten seconds. “And Everett’ll probably be okay. I mean, he made it from the city to Sing Sing once, didn’t he? He can do it again.” |
