RP: Jenna and Sam Who: Jenna and Sam (anyone else at the house) Where: OSP House When: 23 June 2011 Summary: Jenna's making an attempt
Jenna had thrown herself into work and training and classes since she'd talked to G earlier in the week. She just wanted something concrete and filled with simple expectations just for a few days - though if she let herself she'd continue right on the way she had been, working and doing what they were supposed to for the job but ignoring the rest. It was still easier, maybe not better - but there were times that easier was preferable.
Still she grabbed a book, one she could have just as easily stayed upstairs and read, and came downstairs instead. She could have taken the spot furthest out - on one of the corners giving herself space even here, but instead she sat down close to her dad, pulling her feet under her and was just there - like G had suggested - for whatever it was they were doing down here this evening.
Some part of her knew she was being unreasonable, the thoughts that she'd been having the worries and doubts were all unfounded - she knew that and she knew her response to all of them hadn't been right either, but letting go of it, no matter how ridiculous it might have been was a harder task than she thought it should have been. And so rather than try and surmount it all tonight, she decided to settle for this first step.
