Hi all. Currently takibg care of a personal emergency. Will be back and online by the weekend. If you see me online its because i just leave my accpunt on.
Laura was actively watching, sitting on the floor hugging her knees, looking onward to the rest of the people in the room. Faye with her eyes closed and back to the corner of the room passively listening to everyone, waiting patiently for what was to come.
Both women acknowledged only each other and no one else, in a room of strangers, the only ones you could trust w;ere the one’s you’ve been in bed with, and if not then one could never trust anyone. The two had no reason to really talk to each other, best to wait it out the two thought. One way or the other someone would appear they believed.
Someone did end up coming to them, a woman. She was tall, frighteningly so, with eyes darker than an abyssal well. Her attempt an introduction would have done well to make her appear threatening, but the presence of the children with her drastically changed all that.
“She brought kids?” Faye exclaimed rather silently. “Odd choice for a place like this don’t you think?”
“Dumb choice” Laura corrected.
Their impression of the woman changed, her posture and demeanor gave off the appearance of a stern and controlling doctor. The tall woman’s tone however contradicted that. She was a lot more motherly and nice than the two had initially thought, and her unnervingly pleasant introduction confirmed it.
There and then the two decided not to trust this woman, the way she acted gave off the feeling that she was in absolute control over the room.
The two quietly postured themselves straight and walked towards the woman, a crowd would soon follow. Laura positioned herself directly in front of the doctor, their eyes meeting in a cold stare as if to challenge the good doctor. Faye on the other hand was off to the side, her eyes watching both from a far enough distance ready to take action as necessary.
"Greeting everyone, my name is Dr. Jane Williams. That's My nephew, James. And thats my daughter, Miriam. Nice to meet you all."
“Good to meet you too doctor, shall we skip the pleasantries and head straight to business?” Laura was never much for niceties. If anything, to her, they were quite annoyingly dull and factitious. “Unless you plan on gathering us here just so we can get to know each other? Otherwise I think I’m wasting my time not doing anything useful.”
Faye always did like Laura’s get to it attitude, but only if her bedside manners were better when not in bed.
