Not only is she hearing half of the conversation, but it's been rather intimate about family stuff. Sure, Freya's pretty quiet, but so is the room. Though she hadn't been kicked out, the psychic's words from earlier might as well have made it clear she should. It's not like she'd want either of them witnessing what she was like with what's left of her own family. She gets up and begins heading towards the door.

Eh, fuck it. She doesn't have to respond, and she doesn't have to pay attention either. At least Rebecca would have tried. "I'm sorry for earlier, Freya." There are a lot of things she could say to explain her moment of stupidity, but it's a waste of breath and distraction. Besides, she really didn't belong here. Unless something is done or said, she leaves, forgetting her phone was with some of the belongings stuffed under her chair. She'd brought them to keep her mind busy while bouncing between rooms. « Last Edit: Nov 18, 2015 0:04:40 GMT -6 by Rebecca Jefferson » Back to Top   Absinthe Makaila Secretary Counsellor [color=deeppink]<3[/color] [send pm] Joined: September 2009 Gender: Posts: 4,814 Eternal Slumber (open) « Nov 18, 2015 12:02:43 GMT -6 » Quote Select Post Deselect Post Link to Post Member Give Gift Back to Top Freya doesn't respond, but Rebecca gets a nod in acknowledgement.
