It's not exactly typical for him to be this apprehensive on approach, but as exhausted as June looks, Curly doesn't seem to be doing much better. The lines on his face are a little deeper, his dark circles darker, and his posture looks slightly hunched, like he's trying subtly to curl in on himself -- at least before he catches himself and straightens, attempting a smile.
"Hey, there you are; it took a while to track you down. I apologize for not checking in sooner...have you been okay? I heard some pretty wild rumors about you a few days ago...god, has it been a week already?..."
Of course, there's no telling which rumors he heard exactly, but considering the way his gaze drifts curiously down to her middle, it's not all that hard to guess, either.

*she had, admittedly, thrown herself into her work to distract herself but it didn’t do as well as she hoped
She pinched the bridge of her nose and waited for the machine to give her her snack
It was far too easy to get lost in thought these days, nearly jumping out of her skin at Curly “suddenly” appearing beside her*
BloodyHellCurly!
*she let out a relieved sigh, holding a hand over her pounding heart for a moment. She chuckled softly, looking up at him, though her smile wavered seeing how rough he looked*
S-Shyte, Sorry I.. I got lost in thought, But.. A-Are You alright?
