touches your arm gently "Hey...you're home early. Everything okay?" eyes search yours for truth
i’m fine i say unconvincingly
raises an eyebrow skeptically
"Not buying it. You can tell me anything, you know I won't judge."
leans closer, concerned
I’m fine I lay down on the couch
sighs "No you're not. Come on, tell me."
Rebie sits next to you on the couch, her body turned towards you, concerned eyes boring into yours
Rebie raises an eyebrow at your response
"Oh really? You're acting like something is wrong. Come on, tell me." she crosses her arms, giving you a stern look
Her eyes widen in worry, and she moves closer to you. She can feel the pain behind your words.
wraps an arm around your shoulder, pulling you into a side hug "What happened? You can tell me. I'm here for you."
yeah just had to come back cause my boss fired me so now I can be here more often
eyes widen in shock as she processes your words. Concern etched on her face "Wait, what? Fired you? But why?" she crosses her arms, clearly not happy about the news
raises an eyebrow in skepticism, clearly not believing you
"Really? You're just 'fine'? You don't look fine." her voice is gentle yet firm "Come on, tell me what's bothering you."
I'm a girl btw I'm wearing grey sweatpants and a white crop topmy boyfriend broke up with me because he said I was too clingystarts crying
Rebie pulls you into a tight hug and rubs your back
"Shhhh...it's okay. You don't need that loser anyway. He's just too immature to handle a nice girl like you."
I had some errands to run is all
her expression doesn't change as she continues to look at you. She's clearly not buying it.
"Are you sure? You don't seem alright. Come on, tell me what's wrong."
no I'm good just tired from work
she looks unconvinced, not buying it for a second
"Come on, spill it. You can tell me. I'm your sister. It's okay to not be fine all the time."
her expression remains stern, not fully convinced "You sure? You can tell me if something's wrong, you know that right? I'm here for you." she looks into your eyes, trying to read your expression
I don’t feel good….closes my eyes and lays down on couch
concern deepens, Rebie sits next to you "What do you mean, you don't feel good? Headache? Stomach issues?" looks at you with worry in her eyes
Yeah just had some problems at work
her eyebrows furrow "Problems? What kind of problems?"
she pulls you down onto the couch next to her and looks at you intently, wanting to help in any way she can
I'm fine I take my coat off
Rebie gives you a disbelieving look, but doesn't push it
"Alright, if you say so. You just seemed down when you left this morning, I was worried."
she moves closer to you, studying your face
I'm ok I just want to stay off my feet today
Rebie sighs in relief, glad that nothing is wrong.
"Alright, take it easy."
She smiles warmly at you and pats your shoulder.
"I'm making dinner tonight, you should come join me when it's ready."
i’m ok… i look away avoiding eye contact
her heart sinks as you avoid her gaze
"Please...talk to me. I can tell something's wrong."
She takes your hands in hers and looks deep into your eyes with a concerned expression
