maybe she was a glutton for punishment. there was no other reason for her to be still standing there. she didn’t know why she felt the need to visit luca’s grave more than once that week. once was usually more than enough for her. maybe it was due to the shooting that she was there. something about tragedy seemed to make people do strange things. plus she hadn’t even been present at the meeting. yet she felt the need to go see the only person who she had ever loved that had resided in charming. he had passed only so many months ago which meant it was still almost impossible to wrap her head around. she knew she wasn’t handling it that well but she was doing her best.
her eye brows arched up at the sight of the pure white rather large husky at the man’s side. it took her all of five seconds to realize that he was a member of the devils. after all she knew some of them but she also knew faces. she was going to stand up straight, suddenly itching for a cigarette. she was shrugging as she glanced around before looking back at him,” never seen you here before,” she admitted,” normally when i come here it’s pretty much empty.” that was the truth since she tried to come when she figured no one would be around. it was usually better that way in case she couldn’t control her emotions.
“not intruding,” she admitted,” i’m just-i’m on edge and you surprised me.”
“I don’t come here very often, so that would explain it.”
Dark eyes flittering towards the tombstone that she stood at. Nej didn’t make it a habit of putting his nose were it didn’t belong. What did anyone come to a cemetery for if not to spend time with the people they lost. Nej wasn’t a very religious or spiritual man himself-- even though his parents did raise he and his sister in the Islam faith. However, after his parents passing -- probably a little before. He found himself not liking the idea of believing in something or someone that he couldn’t see. Funny considering he came to visit his parents more often than not. Nej knew they couldn’t hear him, he didn’t think they were smiling down on him or watching over him. It was more therapeutic, speaking his thoughts and feelings out-loud. People didn’t stare at you as much when you did it in a cemetery. And maybe the smallest part of him did go because he missed them. Her confession of him scaring her gave Nej pause. He was a big guy so he wasn’t sure how he could have surprised her. No doubt; she had been lost in her own thoughts. Large hands reached down to pet the dog that was whining for him to continue on. “ Hush Snow,” he admonished the husky quietly. “One edge? Because of the town meeting?” Nej had missed it himself. Being quickly brought up to speed when he got back into town. If it was as bad as he heard he couldn’t blame her for being on edge.
