closed starter for @jemmaxlawson
phone calls from home weren't exactly easy. that being for a number of reasons but the main reason was the fact that he missed his family. god, he couldn't believe he lived in a completely different country. he never thought that they'd be that far away. he was finishing up a conversation with his youngest sibling, who was catching him up on some accomplishments at their college and he wanted nothing more than to be there for them. "well, you know i'm always going to be proud of you." the conversation didn't last much longer and as he ended it, he noticed jemma. she was one of his clients and one he didn't mind too much. "sorry-" he paused shifting slightly out of the way of the entrance to the coffee shop, "i didn't mean to block you from going in. how are things, jemma?" there he went again. always avoiding his own troubles.
