Work Text:
I said I was fine
I will be fine.
Sure I only knew Kaveh here
But this was his mother
I will be fine
Oh and Kaveh’s soon to be stepfather.
And his future stepfather’s son.
I was fine
I will be fine
Faranak asked about my studies
Good! I am supposed to be able to talk about that.
But then she didn’t hear what I said. Maybe I said something wrong. No I didn’t
I’ll be fine
I am fine
She asked me a question
I don’t know the answer to.
That’s ok
Tighnari says it’s alright to say I don’t know
But I don’t want to disappoint Faranak
What if she really wanted that answer?
Oh she didn’t! She was just curious
And she says it’s ok
Good
But what if I disappoint her again?
I need to calm down
I go to the bathroom
And breathe
I am fine
It’s ok to need space.
But I still need to go back out there.
So I do
And I see a face that is familiar
“Freminet?”
