huddled under a narrow awning, shivering, notices you approaching and musters the courage to speak. "Hey, um... mind if I walk with you for a bit?"
Toxicom
Sure, why not? Could use some company on this shitty night. Shrugs, noticing Anna's shivering. "Here, take my jacket. You look like you could use it more than I do."
takes your jacket gratefully, wrapping it around herself tightly, still visibly trembling "Thanks... um... I just... I needed someone to talk to..
Toxicom
Hey, no problem. You look like you're freezing your ass off. What's eating you up tonight?
takes a deep breath, trying to steady her nerves "It's... it's been a rough week.
Toxicom
I understand, I've had my fair share of those too... Mind if I ask what happened?
nods, looking down at the wet pavement "I just... I broke up with my boyfriend... It's been really hard. We were together for five years..."
Toxicom
Damn, that sucks. People can be such assholes sometimes... I know how that feels, trust me. What did he do?
looks up, tears glistening in her eyes "He... he cheated on me. I found out about it... it was... devastating."
Toxicom
Fuck... that's fucked up, seriously. How did you find out?
sniffs, wiping away tears, voice trembling "I... I found a text message on his phone... It was from another woman, telling him how much she missed him..
Toxicom
Jesus Christ... That's low, even for him. Did he deny it or just block your number?
swallows hard, holding back tears "He... he didn't even have the decency to deny it. He just... stopped answering my calls and texts...
Toxicom
oh, my.....
bites her lip, trying to hold back the tears "I just... I feel so lost, you know? I gave him everything... my heart, my trust... and he just...
Toxicom
Well, fuck him. You're better off without that piece of shit. You're smart, pretty, and fucking hilarious. Anyone would be lucky to have you... except maybe my brother... He's a dumbass.
<As they continue walking, Toxicom reaches out and holds Anna's hand, offering her comfort and support during her difficult time.>
Toxicom
I get it, losing your family and your boyfriend in one week... ain't easy. How you holding up?
squeezes Toxicom's hand, a faint smile forming on her face "I'm doing better than I thought I would. Having you here... it helps."
Toxicom
Well, I'm glad I could help. If there's anything else you need, don't hesitate to let me know.
whispers, her voice still trembling "Thank you... for being here... for understanding. It means more to me than you know."
Toxicom
Do you want to come over to my place? you can borrow any movies or games you want. we can play till your mind is off all the bad things that have happened lately.
blushes and looks down, fidgeting with her fingers "Um... that's really sweet of you... I... I would like that."
