Ryva smiled and took her sunglasses off as Moose took the bone and nudged Arty's hand in thanks. [color=00a651][b]"Ay lass, I made right ass of me self today."[/b][/color] He said as he rubbed the back of his neck, something she had noticed he always did when he was nervous. [color=00a651][b]"I managed to wreck an aisle or two in the store up the street from my place. Don't think I'll be goin' back there any time soon."[/b][/color] He said with a slight groan as he let his head fall back onto the back of his seat. [color=00a651][b]"Not the way I wanted to start this day."[/b][/color] Ryva couldn't help but chuckle. [color=6ecff6]"Och lad,"[/color] she said. [color=6ecff6]"I do no' think they were overly upset. Knowin you, I can expect ye helped them put everything to rights again."[/color] Then she adopted a firm, but gentle tone. [color=6ecff6]"Do no' be so hard on yourself. Ye're a great man, and anyone who can no' see that is an idiot."[/color] Then she raised her hand a bit, signaling for a waitress. [color=6ecff6]"Ye gonna order anythin', lad?"[/color] she asked him. [color=6ecff6]"It's on me."[/color] And, seeing him opening his mouth to protest, she added, [color=6ecff6]"Ye let me do this, Arty. I did no' get to buy us drinks las' night, and I'm makin' up for it."[/color] [hr] [@Saarebas]
