Does it feel like life is permanently set to extreme hard mode and I still feel super crappy greater than 90% of the time? Yup. But! Emboldened by our relative success with last year's tomatoes, we have given it another go and have added a little pepper plant friend for them. :)
(It may look like the peppers aren't doing as well as the tomatoes, but it cannot be overstated just how bananas this plant's growth chart has been; it's determined to escape the confines of its basket-cage; it has to be constantly rotated so it doesn't completely lose the battle with gravity; I only took this picture the other day and it already looks SO outdated. Can't stop, WON'T STOP.)
#anyways the plan for today is to make some good headway on my 'correspondence' so I guess we'll see how that goes *sheepish laughter*#don't worry I'm not guilting myself over my ridiculously sporadic ability to socially engage -#(not much anyhow I swear!)#- it's just you guys have no idea how much I've MISSED y'all! how I've YEARNED to be able to geek out with you'uns over the blorbos and#their fictional worlds. Like. Please picture me gazing longingly into the middle distance while sorrowfully belting:#🎶 I wanna beeee where the (tumblr) people are. I wanna see... wanna see 'em meta-iiiing! 🎶#🎶 frolicking around in their - what're they called again? - oh right! plot bunnies! 🎶#🎶 incrementally crawling your way through your backlog of content to consume and unexpectedly stumbling your way#into a few new hyper-fixations while the already-there ones continue to rage on you don't get too far... 🎶#🎶 posts (and reblogs and messages and actually finishing a few of your fan creation projects and...) are required for jumping (into#fandoms); dancing (with your friends in gleeful delight over your shared headcanons)! 🎶#🎶 [...] up where they talk (to each other at normal intervals)! up where they (don't) run (out of energy so fast)! 🎶#🎶 up where they stay all day IN THE SUNNNNNNNNN 🎶#🎶 wandering free. wish I could be. PART OF THAT WOOOORLD 🎶#I could go on but I think you get the gist of it 😆#and I definitely know I'm not along in this feeling; at the very least I'm sure that is a familiar tune#in many contexts for anyone else struggling with chronic fatigue/illness among other things#I just wish I could find a better way to intermingle extending kindness and patience to myself and rolling around in fictional character#feelings /together/ with my friends without having to insert such long gaps in between you know?#okay woebegone rambling aside thanks guys for not forgetting about me while I've been gone <3#and let me assure you I haven't forgotten you all either 'cause boy do I need to SHARE SOME STUFF with you!#random musings of a personal nature#I JUST WANNA BE THRIVING HALF AS GOOD AS THOSE TOMATOES YA FEEL ME?

(a bit late but) Happy birthday, Morgan! ✨
I'm not smart enough to write an actual card story but here's the gist under the cut  
- He had never worn a jacket like this and is enjoying it very much. He also likes the sporty look the cap gives.
- Among the gifts he received today, Cater gave him an “honorary pop music club member” badge. He likes that it goes well with his jacket
onto the interview~
- Morgan's 🦑 presenter is Lucas 🌻
Morgan and Lucas get along fine. They were classmates before Lucas got held back a year. Lucas is a silly, easy going pup that does most things you ask him to if you're nice enough about it or give him something sweet in return, he doesn't ask many questions or talks back, so Morgan likes that. 
 - Lucas brings Morgan a basket of pan dulce as a gift. Morgan is elated, he has never eaten bread so colorful. Lucas tells him about how patisserie was brought to his country by outsiders, but overtime evolved into its own thing in such a way that it became a world renown tradition of it's own. borders are much less defined in the deep sea, so Morgan finds the way cultural exchange happens in the surface very interesting. 
 - for the deserted island question...  🦑: how could I possibly be marooned at a deserted island when I could simply swim away?  🌻: uuuuuhhhhhh.... for the sake of entertaining the interview he picks Ruggie 🌻: Ruggie Bucchi? our Ruggie Bucchi??? 🦑: is there another? Morgan picks Ruggie because he's a practiced survivalist, with outdoors experience, reliable and resourceful 🌻: that could also be Rook 🦑: NEVER! the most important thing about Ruggie that makes him a better choice over others is that he's a reasonable man with a reasonable price 🦑: a man should never strike a deal with a price he's not willing to pay. 
- for the dorm transfer question Morgan picks Heartslabyul 🌻: for the tea parties, right? 🦑: no 😒 🦑: ... 🦑: well maybe a bit for the tea parties... 🌻: no need to be shy 'bout it, it's what I would do 😆 🦑: of course you would Morgan picks Heartslabyul because he figures since it's students are used to following rules that they shouldn't be hard to order around 🦑: good little soldiers should make a fine crew, don't you think? 🌻: uhhhhh..... I guess??? 
- It's time for the gift of good fortune! Morgan is just itching for this interview to end so he can eat his bread and Lucas is somewhat nervous at this point as well. He hesitates to throw the pie at Morgan. 🦑: shoot already, you mangy mutt! 🌻: I'm not mangy!!! 😭😭😭 🌻: happy birthday, Morgan!!! [splat! 💥] Lucas throws with a bit more force than he intended and it makes Morgan lose his ground. Lucas apologizes profusely but Morgan takes it in good faith and laughs it off.

✨ He's there with Dylan Hartley tonight I think so I'm sure there will be even more content than last week! *people love an ex England captain*
I'm hoping for a repeat of last autumn...!! 🍁😂🙈 i.e England win by a mile and Frederick gets man of the match again 😂😆👌🏻
Could happen too - Japan haven't looked at their best recently 😭😬
P.S Norfolk Charlie is over in France! *friendship contenttt* 😂
Oh I wish you that ♡ good content and happy Fred sorry I jinxed your post to put some thoughts out.
I had a really painful convo with my bestie yesterday and it reminded me what you said to me about jack being crutches for me..
I want to thank you because you help me daily having a more balanced way of seeing things lately...
The gist of the conversation was that I lost myself a bit into rugby and him, rugby always been a safe place but as I was starting to put him before me or my own needs she needed a bit to open my eyes. My problem being for so long I wasn't seen or acknowledged and recognized in my worth. I wasn't doing that for myself either dismissing my qualities and own value. So when Jack messaged me 2 years ago I think it started something in me and I did hold it and him as much as I could because I felt seen and visible around him or speaking about rugby here. Now it is starting to feel different for the first time and to be how it always should have been , I have more stuffs to be proud of and people loves my work and it is very hard for me to let go and put a distance between me and Jack's world including rugby and people I have met through it.
I am starting to realize I hadn't very much any limits and was breaking my own heart in the process with how much I care and feel but it is not how it should be. It cames from a place from love , I am no creepy stalker and always wanted the best for everyone but was forgetting me and lately rugby gave me less than before. Less enjoyement compared to all the stress and pressure I put myself under with the page / here / the fomo of content / him being good / me being not forgotten...
It is too much, I don't even know why I speak to you about it but since I received as much as good stuffs I received hate / stress I think it was time for me to talk about it because detachement won't happen quickly but if you all are ok to help me to do it that would be lovely.
At the end of the day I know things about him and he knows glimpse about Me. We recognize each others. I also know things no one else know about him but I will never really know the real him. That is important not to Forget.
I am not sick or in depression, I was in a dark place before him and he became my sun. I was turning around him but he blinded me a bit. I think I also recognized in him something in me with the way he cares so much about things and people so it didn't helped me being illuminated by him.
Anyways all that to say I am in a transition phase lately so sometimes I am a bit moody and complain but I need to readjust. To see more in life than only Jack. To let go and detach. It isn't easy or simple as he was for so long the only way for me to exist and be happy. I need to learn again how to walk and you are very much helping me so thank you. Crying a bit while writing it but eh :)

Heyo!! For the writing ask game, 16, 24 and 49!
Hello!
16. How many fic ideas are you nurturing right now? Share one of them?
I have quite a bit. Right now thinking about an idea, not for a fanfic, but for an original story. But in a way, it kinda works like a fanfic, since I am the fan. 😆 I don't know if anyone actually has been reading my story "Jayce & River", but the gist of that story is a slice of life, developing romance story between the titular characters. So good stuff! I decided I wanted to do an AU of sorts and put them in a horror story.
24. Worst writing advice anyone ever gave you?
I can't even think of any! No one, not even my teachers, have gave me advice that didn't work for me. Usually, I just write however I feel and maybe a couple of times I have read a post where that gives prompt ideas or how to unblock myself from a scene.
49. Do you ever get rude reviews and how do you deal with them?
So far, I have really had one rude comment on a fic and that was their fault. Before anyone say anything, it was their fault. Here's the thing, if the author has the ships for the fic clearly tagged, don't comment complaining about the ships when you can easily skip the fic. Don't be that person.
The attitude I usually give in rude comments, is the "mom not yelling at you, but she is very disappointed you and you're about to feel ashamed for your actions".
It was on a fic where BkDk was involved, along with other ships. Long story short, I really dug into the person and told them exactly why I was upset with what they said when, again, they could have avoided the fic. I was also "polite" by ending off with "You have a nice day" on my responses. I find that when you're nice to the person, they'll feel like absolute crap. Which worked because at some point they told me "Well, why don't you delete my comments" and deleted their own comments. I wasn't going to do it because I'm going to make an example out of you.
If you don't like the ship, don't comment on it! I'm really tired of these kind of people who go into ship spaces they don't belong and complain.
Hope the person who left those comments has learned a valuable lesson.
In fact, here's the posts if you want a full play by play!
PART 1, PART 2, PART 3, PART 4

2 week break + Big blog announcement
Hey cuties, did ya miss me (=`ω´=)
Tumblr media
After my 2nd last post about the drama I got into before the break, I was pretty emotionally/mentally exhausted so I went back to Canada and just took a break from everything. Sorry for the lack in posts ヾ(。 ̄_ ̄)ツ
Tumblr media
During the first week I didn’t do too much studying and just kinda relaxed which I very much needed. I watched some shows and movies I wanted to watch and caught up with some friends which was great for me (´υ`)
Noteworthy watches for me was The Batman, Love and Leashes, and Kotaro lives alone. I could go on and talk about what I enjoyed in detail, but knowing my film nerd self, I’d write like a long paragraph for each and that would make this a different kind of blog www. So I’ll just give the boiled down thoughts for each.
The Batman felt like a real portrayal of Batman, Gotham, and even the villains in it. I really liked the character of the riddler and Batman as it seemed almost eerily realistic and terrifying at points. It also really stroked my film nerd brain.
I kinda just watched Love and Leashes because it popular (and it stars SNSD’s maknae 🥳) and I actually really liked it. I was a bit afraid at the end about it being rushed to resolve the conflict but the pacing was good at least overall.
Kotaro lives alone just made me wanna root for Kotaro with each episode and he was also strangely insightful/inspiring about so many ig “adult” situations. In that way it kind of gave me some fruit basket vibes if you get the gist. It’s pretty good for a nice short heartwarming watch.👍
Tumblr media
I also got an interview for a job I applied for at Johnson & Johnson which was exciting and nerve-wracking. I think I did okay, but I’m not sure if I really secured the job… ( ̄ー ̄; Fingers crossed I get that job because I reallyyyyy would like to work there (人・ェ・) For now I’m just waiting to hear back from them so… yeah.
Tumblr media
The second week I kinda had to start studying (yeah I know 🙄 no one saw that coming) and I think I’m pretty on track although I kinda have to push for the remainder of the break. In fact I had to take notes on my plane ride back to Ireland today and write part of this blog too🥲 The woes of being a student huh (≖͞_≖̥)
Tumblr media
Anyways, it time for the announcement which is…
that…
I am moving to blogger 🥳
At first I was kinda in a dilemma where I could just move completely or stop posting here or continue blogging here and on blogger before moving completely. I’ve decided to choose the second option. Also this allows me to “drive traffic” to my new blog which is like a pretty great bonus 🌝 So for all of you shouting “what’s the new blog link?” it is
https://solaakintola22.blogspot.com/?m=1
Tumblr media
Pretty isn’t it 🤩 It took me a bit to customize in a way that not only satisfied my eyes but is also a reflection of my gal style 😎 I also learned some coding in the process so only pros here really 😆 I reallyyyy hope that y’all will give my new blog a visit and maybe even follow me if you want to continue to supporting me. I will probably always be a level of somewhat active on tumblr, even when I completely move to blogger so yeah 💞 Anyways that’s all for now. Gotta go study. Yay 😬
じゃない♥︎

I know sleepover is tomorrow but I cannot wait until then— so after the last performance PLEASE tell me literally everything about your experience!!! I'm so proud of you too but I want to be even prouder!!! Also I miss you like crazy!!
*five days later*
MADAME IT HAS BEEN SO GOOD!!! I miss you too, didn't think I could miss lil peeps on my phone so much😆 I love my cast so much and it has been so amazing to see the other shows(there were three shows, ea/ w/ two directors) grow and thrive!!! I love talking to the other directors (I've actually struck up a friendship with one of them)
I have met so many fascinating people that I intend to keep in my life! I've made a mental list of the ones I can't let go of 😆 Ea/ of the three performances went super well and ea/ of my cast members brought their game to the NEXT LEVEL! I loved hearing the audience reaction for the first time, getting to hear the cheers and laughs is so so so rewarding. I'm definitely finding a way to make a living out of this.
Tech week was actually so amazing, I loved being in such an environment where everyone is working towards this one goal: putting on a good show. Loved working with lights, sound, and props. It is SO COOL finally putting it on stage. We got to do some fun stuff w/ curtains and spotlights in our show!! Very very excited about that. I loved having the audience laugh or cheer at parts that we worked so hard to get- it pays off every second of the hours we spent running the one scene through. There's one scene where we have our two supporting characters interact and we needed 1) tension and 2) audience cheering for one of them w/out hating the other, and it WORKED. Character A steps towards B and the audience cheeeerrsssssss and it's so good! I could live off of that feeling. Or when we have a character walk into the spotlight and hear the audience gasp because GASP he's the bad guy!!!! The gaspsssssss every night!!! So good.
AND APPARENTLY- don't tell anyone, I only know this cuz my mom is friends with the theatre teacher- THE NOW-SENIOR PRODUCER HAS ME ON THEIR RADAR FOR JUNIOR PRODUCER FOR NEXT YEAR! 'Course I don't have anything confirmed but I talked to them about it (not throwing away my shot, y'know?) and they said so themselves so- so eeEEEEE they asked me about an interview and all that jazz, SUPER HYPED! Not only could it mean that I'm guaranteed to be able to participate in the show for the next two years but I would be the one running it the second year!!!!
And! Yeah! I've met some really good and smart people and have had an experience that I know I'll be talking about for ages. Oh! AND GUESS WHAT!
SO SO- The last show was Saturday and strike (cleaning up the sets) was on Monday, but then on Tuesday there was auditions for another show that will be directed by our two theatre teachers. I, of course, auditioned (my second-ever audition) and had a blast! They posted the cast list today and......*drum roll*........ I GOT CAST! I am SO EXCITED and HAPPY, I love doing this so much and I am ecstatic that I get another opportunity to participate in theater.
And now I get to jump straight from being director to being an actor! So good.
ANyWaaaaAAAYyYyyyy- I should prollyyyyy stop now XD I think we have the gist of it😆 I love all the people I've been able to talk to and get to know through these amazing experiences and I am so looking forward to doing it again.
PS- I'm abouta have so much freetime next week cuz rehearsals don't start till the 21st, so watch out for the Return of the Moo!

Desire and regret
Summary: It's the day after the night before. How are Sienna and Jackie feeling about their new years eve kisses?
Book/Pairing: Open heart, Ethan Ramsey x f!MC (Cecilia Gibson), Bryce x Sienna, Jackie x Gary (😂)
Category/Rating: Fluff/ Teen
Warnings: Mentions being drunk
Word Count: 2100
Disclaimer: Characters owned by Pixelberry
A/N: I hadn't planned on writing this fic, but felt that my New Years Eve fic needed a follow up. Read it here or if you don't fancy reading it, the general gist is that Sienna kissed Bryce at midnight and Jackie kissed Gary.
Apologies for the boring header picture, I'm not feeling 100% today and just couldn't be bothered 😆
Tumblr media
New years day
Beep, beep, beep, beep.
Cecilia fumbled around trying to find her phone to switch off the alarm. The sound was most unwelcome, as a wave of tiredness washed over her.
After managing to silence the noise, she rolled over to find Ethan looking at her, bleary eyed.
"Morning," he mumbled with a smile.
"Morning," she replied leaning across to press a kiss to his lips.
"I thought you weren't starting work until midday today? It's only..." he glanced at his clock, "...8am."
"I know, but I need to go and get some fresh clothes before I start. I can't exactly rock up at the hospital in my clothes from last night. As much as I would fully enjoy flaunting the fact I had spent the night with you, I don't think it looks very professional," she replied with a smirk.
"Hmm, I suppose you have a point," he chuckled.
She thought about mentioning keeping some clothes at his apartment, but then reminded herself that such a suggestion could only be followed by a conversation about their future after the hospital closure, and that wasn't something she wanted to be thinking about right now. She didn't want anything to taint the memory of the night of passion they had just shared.
She sat up and slowly swung her legs out of the bed, before letting out a groan.
"You okay?" Ethan asked, placing his hand on her bare back. "Hangover?"
"No, I didn't drink that much last night. Other than the champagne, I only had a glass of wine." She turned to face him. "My aches and pains are from what happened once we got back here," she grinned.
"I would say I'm sorry, but I enjoyed it way too much to have any regrets," he said with a sly smile.
"Oh no, it was definitely worth it," she giggled before grimacing. "But put it this way, I'll be getting constant reminders of it all day."
"I'm sure you'll feel much better after a hot shower," he said, trying to comfort her.
"Yeah, probably. I just wish that was something you could be a part of, but I really should head home."
"Okay, I'll get ready quickly. I may as well head straight to the hospital after I've dropped you off."
***
30 minutes later, they pulled up outside Cecilia's apartment building.
"Thank you for last night, I really enjoyed it." There were so many things unsaid, but she pushed them to the back of her mind as she tried to enjoy her last moments alone with him, not knowing when the next chance would be.
"So did I, immensely." He pressed a soft lingering kiss to her lips, before they reluctantly parted.
"I'll see you later," she said with a hint of sadness as she started to get out of the car.
"I hope the others aren't suffering too much today," he said.
Her mood lifted slightly as she thought back to the kisses they had witnessed the night before. "Yes, it's going to be an interesting day," she smiled, before making her way towards the building.
***
She quietly opened the door to the apartment, knowing that her friends had also arranged to start their shifts later in the day. The silence she was met with told her that they were all still in bed.
She took the opportunity to make herself a coffee and enjoy the silence before the inevitably busy day ahead.
After about 10 minutes Sienna's door creaked open. Cecilia turned to say good morning to her, but instead came face to face with Bryce.
"Oh, hi Bryce," she said, trying to contain a smile.
"Cecilia, hi," he replied, looking uncharacteristically sheepish.
Sienna came out of her room after hearing her voice. "Cecilia. I didn't hear you come in..." a blush crept up her cheeks.
"I was trying to be quiet, I didn't want to disturb anyone," she smirked.
"This isn't what it looks like," Sienna defended.
Bryce looked at Sienna and she widened her eyes at him. "No, not at all," he added, turning back to face Cecilia.
"Oookay." She looked back and forth between the two of them, taking great pleasure in seeing how awkward they were both acting.
Bryce grabbed his jacket, "I'd better get out of here, my shift is starting soon and we all know they couldn't possibly cope without me. Bye Cecilia." Sienna walked him towards the door and he gave her a peck on the cheek before leaving.
Once the door was shut, Sienna turned slowly to face her friend.
"Not what it looks like you say?" Cecilia teased.
"Sorry, I wasn't expecting to see you. I didn't really want to talk about it in front of Bryce, you know how cocky he can be. I didn't sleep with him though, well...we didn't go all the way anyway."
"It's okay Sienna, we don't have to talk about it if you don't want to."
"No, it's fine. You're my best friend, who else am I going to talk about it to." She sat herself next to Cecilia on the couch. "I've never done anything like that before. I'd usually have at least a couple of dates with some one before doing anything, you know, sexual."
"It's not like Bryce is a stranger though is it. You've known him quite a long time now."
"I know, but I've never looked at him in that way before, the whole thing is a bit out of the blue."
"How are you feeling about it? Was this just a one off, or are you going to see where things go?"
"I honestly don't know. I'm not sure if I see Bryce as boyfriend material, he's a bit of a player isn't he. Although, he was really sweet last night. After we...did stuff, we talked for ages. I've never really spent time with him like that before. To be honest, I really enjoyed the whole night." She started to giggle.
"What's so funny?"
"He's, umm, really good with his hands."
"Yeah..." Cecilia chuckled, as she momentarily thought back to their housewarming party.
"Oh crap, I completely forgot you and he had a thing. Oh god, is this really awkward for you?"
"No, not at all. I enjoyed the time I spent with Bryce, but it didn't last long because I had feelings for Ethan."
Sienna nodded with relief.
"Look, I know you think he's a player and yeah, he is flirty and he's had casual relationships, but don't let that put you off him. During the time we spent together, he made me feel really special and as a friend he makes me feel really special, he's been there for me on so many occasions. He's a really sweet guy Si."
"Yeah, I know. I just need some time to think about it. Since Danny died I haven't really looked at anyone in that way...it just feels a bit strange. Bryce may not even want this to go any further anyway."
"Well, that would be his loss, you're a total babe," she giggled. "You deserve to be happy Sienna, whether that's with Bryce or someone else, or on your own."
"Thanks Cecilia," she said, wrapping her arms around her. "Did you have a good time with Ethan? I got so distracted that I didn't really see much of anyone else after midnight."
"Yeah, we had a really great night," she smiled. "Did you see Jackie at all last night?"
"Not much. I know she got a cab home around one. Bryce made sure she got in there okay, she was pretty wasted."
"Oh, that's good then." The lack of shock over Jackie's unexpected kiss with Gary obviously meant that Sienna hadn't seen it happening.
"Is she still in asleep?"
"Yeah, we might have to wake her up soon, and the others."
As if she had heard what they were saying, Jackie suddenly came bounding out of her bedroom, fully dressed.
"Oh hey Jackie."
"Morning. Can't stop, I'm off to work."
"Oh, okay. I was going to make some breakfast, are you sure you don't want anything before you leave?" Sienna asked.
"No, it's okay. I'm going to grab a coffee on the way in, busy day ahead. See ya." And she was gone.
"Well, that was weird," said Sienna, turning to Cecilia.
"Yeah...she seemed very chirpy for someone who had a lot to drink last night."
"Yeah, but she doesn't tend to get a lot of hangovers does she. I meant, she was acting a bit odd."
"Yeah, I suppose," she shrugged, before quickly trying to change the subject. "I'd better get in the shower. See you in a bit."
***
Later on that day - several hours into her shift - Cecilia was on her way to the cafeteria for a quick break. She was walking down a corridor when she spotted Gary walking in the opposite direction, carrying a big bunch of flowers. With a strong suspicion as to who they were meant for, she waited for him to pass her, before quietly turning around and following him.
A few moments later, she noticed Jackie standing at a nurses station. She glanced up and spotted Gary walking towards her, her eyes widened at the sight. After a quick look around to make sure no one was looking, she shoved Gary into an empty examination room.
Cecilia crept over to the door and stood as closely as possible, so she could listen through the slightly ajar door.
"What are you doing Gary?" Jackie demanded.
"Bringing you flowers."
"Why?"
"Because you're beautiful Jackie and I had a really great time with you last night."
"Eurgh, don't mention last night and it's Dr. Varma to you," she snapped.
"I was hoping to take you on a date Dr. Varma," he said, with hope in his voice.
"No, no, no. Never in million years. I was wasted last night and apparently made the most questionable decision of my life. Why would I ever go out with you. I can't even..." She threw her hands up in disgust, before storming towards the door.
Cecilia didn't have time to move out of the way before Jackie was standing before her.
"Were you listening to that?" she barked.
"Umm...yes."
Jackie sighed in despair.
"But, I already knew what happened last night. Ethan and I saw you kissing."
"Well, that's just great. Does anybody else know?"
"I don't think so. No one said anything at home this morning and I haven't heard anything being said here today."
"Well, that's one good thing I suppose."
"If you're so angry about it, why'd you do it?" Cecilia asked cautiously.
"I don't know. I was drunk, he was there. Maybe I had a moment of temporary insanity."
"You were a bit harsh just now though, don't you think?"
"Really?! He thinks I want to date him now."
"I know, but you could have let him down a bit more gently. You still have to work with him for the next few months. Look how sad he is Jackie."
They both looked through the gap in the door to where Gary was standing with his head hung forward, flowers dangling by his side.
Jackie let out a loud sigh. "I suppose." She made her way back into the room.
"Gary, look, I'm sorry for how I reacted just now. The flowers are lovely," she said reaching out to take them from his hand. "You just took me by surprise, that's all."
He looked up at her, hope creeping back onto his face.
"But," she said abruptly. "I can't date you. You're my intern and it wouldn't be appropriate. Sorry."
"That's okay, I get it. We can still be friends though?"
"Yeah, sure. Why not," she said apathetically.
Gary obviously didn't notice her tone, as he beamed at her.
"Much better," Cecilia remarked as Jackie joined her outside the room.
Jackie rolled her eyes, while biting back a smile.
A moment later, Gary followed behind. Jackie stopped him, before he walked away.
"Gary, just so you know. Mention last night to anyone and I will kill you," he nodded compliantly, a hint of fear in his eyes.
"Very nice," Cecilia commented as Gary walked away.
"And the same goes for you," she smirked.
"Hey, I wouldn't dream of it," she replied with a chuckle.
Jackie walked over to the nurses station and plonked the flowers onto the desk in front of a couple of nurses.
"These are for you. Happy New Year."
