When we were children we'd say

[Alva Ren]

I don't know. I just don't know.

Susumu said it might be best to keep my distance, and let things cool down.
But if Rae's out there hurting people or getting hurt, I can't sit here and do nothing, right?

Just because we're not together doesn't mean I should ignore him
right?

[Ryland Ren]

Listen, it doesn't matter what I say or what that Susumu guy says.
You'll do what you want anyway right?
Like I do every single time with Ald because even though sometimes I know you guys are right, I also care too much about Ald not to... reach out I guess
So I see where you're coming from. I mean, he doesn't have the greatest track record either, when it comes to how he acts out emotionally

[Alva Ren]

You're

YOU'RE ENABLING ME RIGHT NOW

I love you so much
And you're right...

Nobody tells us foxes what to do haha

[Ryland Ren]

EXACTLY!

And I know some people would say I'm supposed to talk you down but... we know ourselves better than anybody!

[Alva Ren]

You're not riling me up though... So technically it's not not talking me down!

Thanks Ry.
You're the best!

[Ryland Ren]

No problem. You know I love you.
Is there anything you want to eat right now?

[Alva Ren]

Ummm
Those sesame and red bean pastries from the Chinese bakery downtown? :D get lots. I wanna get fat

[Ryland Ren]

Sure, we'll stop and grab some for you. :D

[Alva Ren]

Okay

I got in touch with Rae but he's giving me 1-word responses. :\ I think he's up to something

[Ryland Ren]

Like what? D:

[Alva Ren]

He's
With Josh

[Ryland Ren]

WHAT

[Alva Ren]

I was right, wasn't I?

They're
The two of them...

[Ryland Ren]

:(
It seems like it.
I'm really sorry Alva.

[Alva Ren]

Ry what do I do? How do I talk him out of it?!
