I run through Terminus looking for Ray but I can't find him.... why me? Why today? I suck up my emotions, pushing past people that roam aimlessly and I enter a building.
"RAY ANSWER ME!" I yell
"Oh sweetie what's wrong?" A woman asks me
Just then my stomach growls making me realize I never ate that sandwich. I feel my cheeks burn as I turn away from the lady that chuckles at me
"You must be hungry, come on then don't just stand there" She smiled walking down the hallway
"Aren't you Ray's mom?" I ask as I trail behind the lady
"Yes, aren't you Gareth's daughter?" She questions
"I guess" I mumble to myself
"Hm?" She hums
"Uh..Yeah" I say looking behind me
"Might I say you are a gorgeous young girl" She further states
"Thank you, you're pretty too" I say back
I follow the lady to the apartment and we walk in.
"I'm going to make us some sandwiches, is that okay?" She asks me smiling
"Yeah, definitely" I say smiling back
When she leaves I take this chance to walk around, searching for Ray's room. I reach the second door and as I reach for the knob I hear a 'Ehem'
"Can I help you?" Ray asks raising an eyebrow
Then anger surges through me
"You've changed, and I don't know why. What's wrong with you?" I ask frantically reaching for his hand
"Back off Jasmine" He says rudely pushing me
"This is not how you treat a friend, do you not remember being starved?" I continue
"You are NOT my friend, just because you don't take a good opportunity when you have the chance to doesn't mean I'll follow you like a sheep. This is my home now Jasmine, this could be your home too. Our home" Ray says seriously
"Ray.." I trail off
"You invited your friend for dinner. How thoughtful" Ray's "Dad" Chris chuckles putting an arm around Ray
"I was actually just uh...going home. I think I'll take mine to go please" I tell Chris scratching the back of my neck
"Well you both have had a long day, we'll pack you a dinner to take home" Chris says patting my head
I nod as he walks away
"Just take some time to think about it" Ray tells me as he lays a hand on my shoulder
"I already have"
Ray's eyes glow in excitement
"Really?" He asks
"Yeah, and I think it's best for the both of us. The people here are amazing, they work hard, they're loving individuals, plus you're here. What other choice could there be?" I smile
"So what do say?" Ray asks
