Valerie had arrived to the ten year reunion quite early, considering her brain was still on a different timezone than the residing one, but it didn’t stop her from making her rounds from one familiar face to one not so familiar face. By the time the reunion was in full swing the dark haired woman was becoming fatigued, yet didn’t want to be one of the first to leave like she was to show up. Leaning against a wall to support her weary body, she sipped at the warm straight black coffee in her hands hoping it’d give her the energy to continue. Sooner than she expected the cup was drained and Val was making her way across the room to dispense of it. Of course she wasn’t watching exactly where she was going, still the klutz she was ten years ago, Valerie collided shoulder first into someone. Stepping back, the cup in her hand the least of her worries. “Oh no, Are you okay? I’m sorry, I should still be wearing a safety vest to warn people about my clumsiness.” Remarking on a time when that’s all the teachers would tell her in their school.
