Re: April and Parker
April smiled widely at the new woman. She sounded a bit strained perhaps, but then she was new and she remembered how confusing - and lonely - that was. "I'm afraid I'll have to admit I'm of the 'nice but don't really care' category of people," she said. "The excuse to spend time with people I like more. I'm April, by the way. Welcome, if that's the right word to use."
She took a sip of her beer and watched the other woman. "When did you arrive?"
