once upon a time, it had been her, julian, cole and jordana against the world. just a bunch of famous kids, way in over their heads, who had no idea how hard life was going to be. and despite cole falling off the grid for decades, he had once upon a time, been a wonderful friend, and that wasn’t something persephone could forget. and with everything going on with maiya, plus assimilating back into this world, she couldn’t imagine how stressed the man must’ve felt. so, she decided to pay him a visit, check in with him and see what was going on in his head, to be a friend if he needed a shoulder to lean on. knocking at the door, soft smile is spread across lips as he answered. “i supposed i’d stop by and cordially invite you to parents who have or have had kids in rehab club. too soon?” she said with a scrunch of her nose. “well, i just know that i’ll cry if i don’t laugh about it, so i go for the latter.” she said, shaking her head at herself and her dumb early attempt at lightening the mood. “i just...wanted to stop by in case you need a friend. if not, feel free to tell me and my shitty jokes to get the hell out of here.”
