What Violet liked most about Seth was that she could talk frankly with him about what she was going through, without having to worry that he would recommend that she see a psychiatrist or go on anti-depressants or something. It might not have been the greatest thing to base a friendship off of, but at the same time, Violet needed someone like him in her life. Seth made her feel almost normal.
When she saw him, it was obvious that he didn't look well, but Violet chose not to comment. After all, she probably didn't look any better. Ever since Derek's death, she had been plagued by nightmares and an inability to sleep through the night, so there were often dark circles beneath her eyes.
"Don't worry about it. I wasn't waiting long," she replied, giving him a little bit of a smile as she opened the door to the cafe and walked over to a table.
