[ Geez, Estelle, if you keep going on like that she seriously won't know how to deal.. although she's probably already long passed that line, since it suddenly feels terribly difficult to act the way she always does. Instead she feels more the way she used to back when she was much younger and still in school - nervous, mostly. She never really does know where to thread when it comes to friendship so she won't ruin it. Although this feeling is more happy than it ever was back then. ]
I wonder for how long I hoped someone would say that for once back then.. [ It's probably one of the most open things Ange could admit, since it's not something she has told a lot of people, if more than one or two at all. There's a reason she always tries her best to be so tough, after all, so she can't just tell everyone stuff about the time she was bullied like this.
But she can at least trust someone as bright and incredibly kind as Estelle. Right? Some part she buried deep within herself wants to. ]
[Alas Ange one you start dealing with Estelle's kindness there's no true escape... And there's more to this, she can tell. There must have been some kind of reason as to why Ange would've wanted to hear something like this before, and Estelle can't imagine it's because of something good. While she could pry, try asking directly what her statement means... She doesn't want to. Ange might be blunt, but Estelle thinks she can be pretty evasive when it comes to her own emotions and past. She chooses what to tell people, and is it was now, Estelle would rather let her go at her own pace than try to force it herself.
So instead she takes the other girl's hands in her own again, looking her right in the eyes. Ange can tell her whatever she wants, whenever she wants—Estelle will always listen.]
If it's not too late then, I hope you can accept my saying it.
Ah.. [ Her cheeks flush a little bit as she looks at the other girl, searching for words for a moment. But it doesn't work, all she can do for that moment is sit there and stare at her wide-eyed before she ducks her head a little and is able to speak on. ]
Of course I will. .. Just this once, though. Don't think you can just take advantage of it and say it whenever you want to catch me off guard..
[ Nodding to herself lightly.. this totally isn't awkward. Not at all. Nope siree. ]
.. I should probably go sleep a little bit now though or else Senji's going to get mad at me again. [ Not that he didn't have a good reason to, but still, Ange doesn't always really like being mommed. ]
Hehe, that sounds like a good idea. [Does Estelle even know that Ange and Senji are together.... If not she's tucking this piece of information to ask about later MORE IMPORTANTLY rest is good.] Do you need any help getting to your room?
[ Not like she's an invalid..!! Although Estelle did heal her wounds and all, but even if her wounds were still right there Ange would have insisted that she was going to be fine. ]
So.. don't worry. I'll talk to you again some other time.
