Promises | Luis & Lucille

@luis-perez-hades​

Lucy didn’t know how long it would end up taking her to unravel everything jumbled in her mind, and then decide from there what she wanted to do. One day turned into two, which ultimately turned into two weeks before she made her way to Final Slumber. It was the firs time she had ever actually gone to Luis’s place/business, considering most of their prior interactions took place in her cafe. Initially,s he wasn’t sure if it was more appropriate to knock, or if she could simply walk in. She hesitated for a moment while trying to figure out which was more appropriate before going ahead and trying to doorknob, not the least bit bothered by the funeral home setting.

Once inside, she looked around, heart beating a little bit faster in hopes of seeing Luis. Her pulse calmed a little bit with the mild disappointment that he was nowhere to be seen. Upon finding the directory for the apartments however, a flutter of nervousness started back up in her chest. She found Luis’s and used the keypad to buzz his apartment, and then waited, hoping that he was home.

Meet the Parents | Luis & Lucille

@luis-perez-hades​

Lucy was restless in the hospital waiting room. Sometimes she tried to make herself sit and calm down but when she couldn’t talk herself into do so anymore, she popped back up and returned to pacing. No one else had been in the waiting room at the time, which while not entirely surprising, just made her that much more anxious. There was a small television mounted in a corner of the room and some sort of cooking competition was on. Lucy wasn’t paying attention to it--as much as she tried. She had cried after the medics rushed her aunt away and although she hadn’t taken a look at herself, she was sure that  her eyes were bloodshot and puffy. They felt puffy and they still stung. She just wanted to know how her aunt was doing, and she wanted to calm down.

She also found herself wanting Luis there, which was the reason why she ended up calling him. She grappled with that decision before finally going ahead and calling him. While waiting, Lucy hoped with everything in her that her aunt would be okay.

Beating the Heat | Luis & Lucille

@luis-perez-hades​

Lucille knew the City was going bonkers with the consecutive days of blistering heat. With her air conditioning sometimes working and sometimes not, she’d been a bit frustrated herself, which was what had her spending the vast majority of her days at the cafe. Going against her self-imposed policy, she’d brought in her bunny, Velvet that morning, leaving him caged under her office desk to stay cool and far away from any food prep.

After finishing up with an Excel spreadsheet where she worked on the employees’ schedule for the next two weeks, she headed out to the front of the shop, keeping herself present for both the staff and customers alike. She’d given one of her clerks a friendly reminder to take their break with assurance that she would cover for them, and then turned around to wash her hands. When she turned back around, she saw a familiar face enter the cafe. Unable to help it, Lucy smiled and gently waved ‘hello’. “Well, this is a pleasant surprise. Welcome in!”
