RP: Lunch at the World's End Date: April 21, 2003 Characters: Alicia and Adrian and Open Setting: Lunchtime at The World’s End Content: Worksafe Status: Open: Public
Looking at the steps leading up to The World’s End, Alicia began to regret her decision to meet Adrian here for lunch. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to meet with him, quite the opposite, in fact, but the walk here had been long, or at least it had felt long, and those three steps might as well have been a mountain that she had to climb.
Alicia felt like a whale, and she was more than ready to not be pregnant any longer, to be ready to move about without getting winded and eat more than a couple of bites before feeling full. She longed to see her feet again and to hold a baby that she could put down again, rather than constantly having that extra weight to haul around. She had loved being pregnant, but now that the end was in sight, she wanted it over and done with, and preferably yesterday.
Drawing in as deep a breath as she could, she managed to get up the stairs and inside the pub, where she found a seat by an empty table. Normally she would order at the bar, but today, she was going to wait for Adrian to show up, and then she would let him do the moving about.
