Helanie:
We had confronted Altan about a bad decision, but I noticed a few things. When we went into his home, he was sitting silently, almost too silently. As if he were sleeping.
"Did you want to scold him as well?" Emmet joked in a serious tone.
"No, but I've been wondering what's going on with Altan. He didn't seem okay. Almost like he was absent until midway through, and then he finally responded to you," I uttered, remembering Altan's face. He had no expression when he saw us arrive.
"Asshole must've been thinking he lost a great one when he saw you." Emmet was so nonchalant and carefree at times that he made me roll my eyes playfully at him.
Once we arrived home, it was Vani who had cooked food for us and the rest of the house members.
"Come have a seat with us," Larissa offered, gesturing for us to sit down with them. They were eating so messily, probably because Emmet brought the groceries. Otherwise, they would've rather gone out and eaten with others.
