everything is different, and everyone is different. It’s a fact that Sunny is still having trouble digesting, even more so when he comes to Faraway and stays at Kel’s home; of course, a nostalgia-attuned mind spots every similarity possible. He is comforted by those similarities, but dwelling on them only would cause more of a rift in his mind then there already is... and it doesn’t help his anxieties that Aubrey is probably the person he’s interacted with the least since he left his house.
He wants to try and be her friend again, and that means learning about what he’s missed. Kel’s mother had invited Aubrey for dinner, and it seemed she’d accepted. A bit after the meal, Sunny finds Aubrey lingering on the porch, so he capitalizes on the opportunity that presents itself. The boy hovers quietly nearby like a one-eyed ghost, mind slowly calculating what words to speak.
“ ...hi. ” Sunny greets in that whisper-tone of his; he’s so bland and bad at starting conversation, but he knows he needs to try. “ how... how have you been? recently. ”
