Oh, I know.

[ she's well aware that micah would never step out of line. her anger isn't toward him. regardless, he isn't her favorite cousin and she isn't going to treat him as such. ]

But your brother seems to think it is okay to do otherwise.

[icide]

[he's not anyone's favorite anything. he's not even cole's favorite brother probably.]

[at least she's finally getting to her point, although it makes him squint in suspicious confusion. he doesn't know what she's getting at or if she's playing with him, but cole just said he had no idea what she would be referring to, and he'd take his word over hers.]

What are you talking about?

[ex_vacuous481]

You're a sad, sad little sheep following the wrong shepherd.

[ sets some fruity pebbles down in there. stop thinking about squishing her bread, micah. it's not polite. ]

You can go now if you'd like. [ a beat. ] I'll see you and your brother tomorrow at seven o'clock.

[icide]

[let's be real here, real talk cypress. you are all the wrong shepherd. all yall are wrong as hell.]

[he lingers for a moment, contemplating asking her what exactly she's implying, but the offer to not be around her any more is more tempting than the answers, so he steps around her with an uncertain look and pulls his headphones back up to drown out the piggly wiggly ambience. if she's not going to tell him and cole says nothing is wrong, he guesses he'll just have to find out tomorrow. which is kind of like knowing you're in trouble but not actually being called in to the principles office for hours. horrible mostly. thanks.]
