Who: TELLA What: Talking about the future When: Saturday, 16 April, 2006 Where: T's place; the pool Warnings: TBD, though none expected
Dinner had been difficult, though that was no surprise considering it was like this every year. It was on this day that it was so obvious that someone was missing from the table. Of course, the fact that they all were grieving or remembering in their own way as they silently honored the memory of Finn.
She hadn't seen T all day, not since she'd left early that morning and that had not really counted considering that she hadn't even spoken to him. It was time to go home, though. Well, home being wherever she settled in with T at night. The day hadn't given her any breakthroughs in regards to her feelings on Finn, but it had actually given her a lot to think about in regards to other things.
Arriving back at T's place, she took a few minutes looking for him (starting in the bedroom) and finally found him in the pool. Taking a moment to appreciate him from afar, she finally pulled off her shoes and rolled up the legs of her trousers before sitting at the edge of the pool, letting her feet dangle in the water.
She waited until T noticed her and was close enough to hear her before she spoke. "My brother died ten years ago today," she offered, by way of starting whatever conversation it was that she knew she needed to have with someone. She wanted that someone to be T.
