WHO: Henry Claus, Lyra Campbell WHEN: Friday late afternoon? WHERE: Starbucks WHAT: Catching up WARNINGS: TBA?
Wedding business and college work and now worrying about Krampus was taking up a lot of Henry's time. Still, he didn't want to let his worry over Krampus sweeping him away for some debauched bachelor's party to keep him from participating in his life. He'd lost so many years to despair, and he wasn't going to go back there.
So he agreed to meet Lyra at Starbucks, if Lyra would come walk him from the car to the cafe. And then once inside, Henry would message Iestyn that he was fine and no one would need to call out the angel brigade to rescue him from some orgy he was never going to participate in in the first place.
When Henry found a park, he shot a text to Lyra to tell her where he was. And once he spotted her coming closer, he grinning and hopped out of the car. "Hi!" he called, jogging over to her, arms outstretched for a hug as he reached her. "Oh, it's so good to see you!" Things had kept getting in the way, but he was glad they had a chance to catch up now.
