Time with a Friend
So Adeline was starting to wonder if something was wrong with her since the accident. It wasn't really like a mental thing or anything, well maybe. But she had this odd fascination with staring at Dassen when she was there to work. It was the studying kind of stare too. Like she needed to figure him out and she didn't know what her problem was. What the hell was she trying to figure out anyways?
The accident had been over two weeks ago now, and she really liked coming here. Jamie was working, and though she just started, it seemed Mary was just in love with her. The rest were happy for it, because Mary didn't have so much on her, and clearly loved having another woman around that spoke her lingo as she put it. Adeline joined them a lot and was glad for the time with Jamie, felt like it was starting to make them closer again.
