Monday 12/10/07 Who: Ciri and Duncan Where: the cafeteria When: midday What: a slightly odd meeting
Lunch time neared and Ciri thought she'd go to the cafeteria to see if she might see anyone she knew. Eating with Calvin was one of the nicest part of her day, so being with a friend had to be almost as nice. She stood near the doorway, scouting for people and was disappointed. Wait, did she see correctly? A couple of blinks because suddenly her vision was fuzzy... and Calvin was by the shelves of food, near the desserts in particular. Confused, as she thought Calvin was working, she paused only a moment before she hurried forward and wrapped her arms around him for a hug. "Hi, Calvin!" she greeted and noticed he seemed shorter than usual.
Another few blinks and the image of her husband disappeared, morphing into a man she had not seen before (with brown hair at least, though). Ciri was so confused. "I am sorry. You looked like my husband until I came this close," she said. Not one to be flustered for very long, she stepped back and gave him a bright grin. "My name is Ciri. You have pretty eyes." Meanwhile, the fact that she had mistook him for Calvin worried her - she hadn't been in the cafeteria very long before she saw him. Was the baby making her see odd things? Just in case she was tired, she brushed her hair away from her forehead which helped her wake up sometimes.
Her confusion and slight worry was obvious as she was never one to hide her emotions although it only lasted for a very short time. Meeting someone new was always exciting and this happened to be no exceptions. Her hand fell to her navel, rubbing a little. "I wanted to eat lunch but none of my friends are here." Not that she had spent much time with them lately and that needed to be fixed at once. "May I sit with you?" If he was not going to remain here, that was fine, she'd eat alone. Her expression remained cheery and eyes shone up curiously at him.
