❛  Out of the ordinary how? You know how weird this place can get. That chicken place Jacinda works in caught fire the other day.  ❜  Though nothing in Hyperion Heights seemed to be as odd to him as the way his ex-wife was acting. Aidan reaches out to rest a hand on her back, letting the concern he feels actually shine through.  ❛  Hey, are you sure you’re okay?  ❜

okay was far from where regina found herself. she was sitting at a bar   (   albeit, her bar   ), a wreck, next to her not - really ex - husband who was trying for once. only, her hands were tied. she couldn’t confide in him. not now, not about this.   ‘   no, i’m not okay.   ’   she doesn’t mean to be so curt, but her frustration starts to slip through.   ‘   i just suddenly have a lot on my plate and it’s not anything i can explain to you right now.   ’   a deep breath, followed by words roni resented her for uttering.   ‘   but, if it makes you feel any better, i would tell you if i could.   ’   she wishes david were here. he’d help her figure this out.
