HE NEVER EXPECTED TO DEVELOP anything more than the odd dynamic they previously had. there was a time in which he barely knew the sound of her voice, and he’d oftentimes wonder how she and roman were so close when he could barely get more than a few words out of her every time they’d come across one another. needless to say, thanks to her new conquest and dying interest in rom, he’s had the chance to get to know her more and more as time has gone on. now, he’ll be the first to admit that he’s come to adore her. when he spots her frame at one of the school’s benches, he walks up behind her slowly, eventually plopping down right next to her without warning. “ hey, you. where have you been hiding ? ” he asks, slinging his arm around her shoulder.
usually when romeo steps into view, her face does something akin to lighting up (she’s been told the same thing happens when she sees roman too). but this time the announcement of his presence is followed by nothing but a short sigh, jiji’s shoulders slightly slumped, and her face downcast. “i’ve just been here, thinking about stuff, wondering why life is so unfair.” last night’s events come rushing back, mainly the way her father had looked at her, the way her mother had spoken to her. and maybe she’s being dramatic, but it does feel as if her world was slowly but surely e n d i n g in a rather spectacular fashion.
