@asporcelain: “ you deserve better. ”
Deserves better. It was still an odd concept for her. In the past twenty years, the idea that she may have the chance of earning something for herself outside of her life with Elijah wasn’t something that she thought possible. Not that she wasn’t happy with Elijah - it was nice where she was, quiet, but lonely. Elijah didn’t like going out much, and as such, she’s spent a lot of time with him and the other Chloes. She never had much of a chance to see the outside world. She isn’t sure what to say initially after the other tells her she deserves more, remaining silent for a few moments - a smile spreading across her face, bowing her head.
