starter for: @lia-lozano location: the spring fling festival, at the easter basket stations
"Pes artık!" Alara groaned under her breath as she approached the table that she had been assigned to and spotted just who fate or Allah or some other cruel joke had partnered her with. Normally, she would be grateful to have been partnered up with her friend, ecstatic that at least she was partnered with someone who would make this whole thing enjoyable. But normally, her heart hadn't been smashed into pieces thanks to the love interest of said friend.
Alara wasn't sure how to be around Lia now that she knew the woman and Emil were seeing each other. Every time she'd seen Lia's name pop up on her phone, it had served as yet another reminder of New Year's Eve, seeing them wrapped up in each other, and twisted the knife even further into her heart.
Slowly, knowing there wasn't really a way to escape, she closed the distance to the table. "Hi," she greeted quietly as she walked up. "Do you have any idea what we're supposed to be doing with these things?" Of course she would do all she could to sidestep the actual conversation that needed to be had.
