❧ @nfitzpatricks // outside the court house
Day in and day out, one case after the other simply because people felt the need take matters into their own hands. Long days followed and although she loved her job, there was an exhaustion that came with the repetitiveness at times. It was a feeling she pushed down, refused to acknowledge the very moment she set her foot outside the doors of the courthouse.
Valeria had suppressed a tired yawn as she neared the door, opened it for a little assistant carrying boxes when spotting the familiar face. Not that she'd have considered such a meeting a surprise. Nolan. "Mister Fitpatrick, successful day I hope?" Successful in her world versus his was an entirely different story.
