Vista twisted around to look up at him, “You said that in front of Glory Girl, too. He was her boyfriend.”
Both of the girls are concerned with how it affected the other, not just themselves. I like that.
“I know. She said she understood and that it was okay, but I don’t know how true that is. Before I figure that out and work out how to make it up to her, I want to make sure you’re okay.”
I think it counts for a lot that Clocky actually mentions that he’s not sure how true that is and that he still intends to make it up to her, because I feel like if he didn’t, Vista would absolutely guess that it wasn’t okay and get even more annoyed/angry at Clocky for seemingly having taken it at face value.
She hung her head.
It was a long time before she spoke. “He was the reason I looked forward to coming here every day.”
😥
Seriously, Clocky literally couldn’t have picked a worse pair of people to speak ill of Gallant in front of. At least among the cast we’re familiar with.
