Caliphe looked up at the sky when Lincoln did and then a small smile settled on her lips. When she looked back at him, she was even more curious about his words. "Oh, that's too bad. Wanna talk about it?" she asked.

"Isn't it?" Lincoln asked, looking up. It was a little cloudy but the light was definitely hurting his eyes, "Yeah, but not in a fun way unfortunately."

"Thank you for trusting me," she said with a smile. "No, she doesn't need a big brother talk," she said, rolling her eyes teasingly. She looked over at Ford and said, "How's that peppermint latte coming along?"

"Okay, I trust you," he replied. "So, I assume she doesn't ned a big brother talk?" Ford joked, though he never really big brother threatened anyone who Caliphe dated, and he trusted that Saskia would treat Caliphe right.

Grace let out a small laugh at the question, “God no, my horizons are sadly barren in that sense,” she replied. “I’ve been really focused with work.”

"I think so," she said, shrugging. "We haven't really had that issue so far. I know she's technically my superior but we see each other as equals. We respect each other at work and at home."

"I know that, but she is superior to you as of right now. Are you able to separate your relationship with her and being able to accept instructions and criticisms from her, and the other way around?" Ford asked.

“Well, as long as you have that, you’re probably healthier than most other couples,” Grace replied.

"Okay, thank you," she said as she waited for the woman to wrap the stems. When she finished, she handed the woman her card to pay for the flowers. "Do you sell vases here too? I might need to get one. I don't think we have any at home."

"forty." the brunette replied, a small smile on her lips. "if you give me a few moments i'll get the stems wrapped for you - i usually suggest cutting the stems on an angle and i've heard adding a copper penny to the vase does wonders."

"It's not really," she said as she looked over at Lincoln. He had on sunglasses and Caliphe could only assume he had a long night. "Rough night?" she asked, curiously. She understood those. She'd been plagued with nightmares that kept her up most nights.

Lincoln had a pounding headache. He had been haunted by visions all night, even sleep couldn't help him. He kept his sunglasses on as he walked toward the pharmacy, "Why is it so bright out today?" he said to himself, not knowing someone was within earshot.

"She is really nice. She's kind, sensitive and she's really good to me," she said. Caliphe looked up at her brother and shrugged, "I don't know. I don't think so? I mean, I can be professional at work."

"She's really nice," Ford replied. "Are you concerned though, working with her? Is that a conflict of interest?"

“I think it’s a smart move,” Grace replied. “It’s important to know each other’s boundaries and dislikes, especially communicating them.”

"Yeah, that's true," she said. Caliphe thought she was pretty lucky when it came to love. Meeting Saskia changed her perspective on a lot of things. She grabbed her card out of her wallet and looked at the woman, "How much for the lilies?"

"i don't hold my luck against my attractiveness - more trivial things influence my thoughts on luck." the brunette admitted. "lucky in life? lucky in love? lucky with work?" she listed different ways a person could be lucky. "it doesn't all have to be influenced by the way one looks."

"Oh did she? I didn't even notice," she admitted, getting used to the nickname. Her brother often brought her coffees to work and she appreciated him for it because the hospital coffee was trash. "I like to think so," she said. "I really like her... like a lot."

"Saskia let it slip the other day when I brought her and you some drinks from the cade, and my other Neuro doctors," he replied, knowing she would know about the things he did for the people who helped him at the hospital as his accident. "So, is this thing serious?"

“I’m sure she wouldn’t do food if she didn’t like chewing,” Grace replied. “Why don’t you talk to her about it, see what she doesn’t like, tell her what you don’t like.”

"Thank you," she said, moving over towards the register. She listened as the woman spoke, nodding along. "You don't consider yourself lucky? You're really pretty... I mean, if my opinion matters anyway."

"yeah of course, more than happy to wrap these up for you." delilah admitted, grabbing the bunch of flowers and moving to the counter to prepare them for the brunette. "yeah i think it'll be nice, i might visit my neighbour see if they're keen for some pizza - but knowing what he looks like he'll probably have a hot date." she chuckled softly wrapping the branded paper around the stems of the flowers. "some people are lucky in that sense."

“I feel like you could never go wrong with dinner or a movie, unless you hate people chewing, but I feel like if she hated people chewing, she might not have invited you over for food.”

A smile grew on Caliphe's face as her brother mentioned the nickname Saskia gave to her. She blushed a little as she started to talk about her, "How did you hear--never mind." She knew her brother had a way of knowing things about her. "It's just a nickname from this woman I'm seeing," she said, shrugging. She knew he'd want to know more though.

"So... the nickname Jellybean," Ford said with a small smirk, hoping she'd catch on on what he was saying. "You wanna tell me about that?"

Caliphe frowned when she heard that her friend would be alone on for the holiday. “You should come over to my house for Christmas,” she offered. “It’ll be my parents and my siblings but I know you’ll be more than welcomed there.”

the brunette shook her head, a small frown on her lips. "i was supposed to go see my mother but it didn't work out." avery admitted. "i'm sure one of the cafes in town will be open - so hopefully i'm not completely alone."
