a curse, a single curse had slipped from her lips when they had nearly collided. how unbecoming ! the slip would have had her unforgivably chastising herself if it hadn’t just been natasja. the relief ! “ natasja, ” the sound is too keen, so she dresses it in the first thing she can think of that might be relevant: concern. “ i’m pleased to run into you, i hope you’re feeling better ? i told thore to send you something, i hope he did, ” send her what ? flowers ? alka seltzers ? she’ll expand on this lie later. “ i hope the consequences from the other night weren’t too harsh on you, we were a little worried. ” [ @nctasja ]
