"It's fine, Azalea. It's been a long day for all of us," Payon said as she tucked a hair behind her ear. Azalea watched as her soul sister sat the photos gently in her lap and looked over Daliah."I don't mean to sound rude, Daliah, but when's dinner?" she asked, making Azalea smile. Even though they were all overjoyed and confused at the information given to them, she guessed many people were hungry. After traveling for hours and finding out your past, it tended to make the stomach feel empty. She placed her hands over her stomach as well, but didn't feel it to be polite to ask for food from someone who had already given them so much. That was an issue Azalea had always had, she felt as if she wasn't worth asking for things. People always walked over her because she never spoke up about her needs. Maybe with the new home, some of this would change. The girl doubted it however.
Hale's dog didn't really budge during the entire scene. It's white head stayed on her lap, looking at the people around every so often. She hoped Hale didn't mind. It was just that she liked animals. Speaking of Hale, moments later he approached her once again with his hands in his pockets, his thumbs sticking out in a casual manner.
"Hey" he said simply, making Azalea look up from his dog.
"Oh, hello" the girl replied. Her voice was more at its normal state, though it still remained soft as always.
"I hope you don't mind me petting your dog for this length of time. It's kept me sane after all this exciting news" she spoke, smiling slightly before averting her eyes away from his. Azalea looked over at her sister with a warm smile. She was overjoyed to have her real friend back. Being near her she felt more powerful than when she was alone. Not that she would ever do something destructive with her abilities - but she felt more energized to say the least. Daliah walked over to the side of the couch.
"Dinner should be up to all of you. The fridge seems to be endless, I'm sure we can all find something to agree upon making" Daliah said before walking away.
"I don't really know what I want to eat..." Azalea trailed off, mostly speaking to herself.
