I should get my stuff. She had meant to do that earlier today but kept putting it off, till it got later and later.

She hadn't done much of anything today, had barely been out of her room. It was silly to mope around like this, Chris knew that, but decided to indulge herself for a while. In a day or two, she'd leave her room and go back outside.

It would be easier would be easier when she was back at work, she'd be too busy to get bogged down by memories.

"I think it does matter."

[agirllost]

"Someone told me, they said that where they're from...people with these abilties, they don't age like normal people."

[geeky-agent.livejournal.com]

"Why won't you tell me who it is?" Her tone isn't accusing, just confused.

And, perhaps, a little suspicious.

[agirllost]

"It's my teacher, not that many people know about her..."

[geeky-agent.livejournal.com]

"Is she someone from the bar?" Chris imagines she must be.

[agirllost]

"Yes, she...really helped me."

[geeky-agent.livejournal.com]

Chris nods. "Well, that's good." She's still wondering why Kim was being so evasive.

"How did you meet her? Is she the one who gave you the powers?"

[agirllost]

She shakes her head slightly, "She's the one that saved me from myself."

[geeky-agent.livejournal.com]

"She saved you from yourself," Chris repeats, more confused by the moment. She had thought Nita was the one who had stopped Kim from hurting herself.

[agirllost]

"When I first developed the powers...I didn't know what was going on and she helped me...she helps me."

[geeky-agent.livejournal.com]

"Does your teacher have powers like yours?" Chris is wondering if she knows who this person could be.

And she is still wondering why Kim is relunctant to tell her who her teacher is.

[agirllost]

She nods, "It would be really hard to teach this kind of thing if you couldn't channell. At least, I think it would..."

[geeky-agent.livejournal.com]

"Channel?" The word sounds familiar but she can't really remember how at the moment.

[agirllost]

"Yeah, that's what I did before, that's what it's called."

She glances down and looks back up. "I'm going to be able to help people, Chris. Really help them."

[geeky-agent.livejournal.com]

"Like how?"

[agirllost]

"I...don't know yet," she smiles a little sheepishly. "But I will."

[geeky-agent.livejournal.com]

Chris is completely at a loss at this point so she tries not to let her confusion show and just nods.

[agirllost]

"Anyway, I...I just wanted to see how you were doing," she tucks some hair behind her ear.

[geeky-agent.livejournal.com]

"Thank you, Kim," she says with a small but genuine smile. "I'll be all right."

[agirllost]

She opens her mouth slightly as if to say something else but then just gives her a small smile in return.

"Okay, if you're sure...I should probably go see Angie."

[geeky-agent.livejournal.com]

A quick nod. "How is she doing?"

[agirllost]

"Much better. We've gotten to spend time together which is...really good for both of us."

[geeky-agent.livejournal.com]

"That's good." She folds her arms, suddenly feeling a little cold.

[agirllost]

She nods, feeling slightly awkward. "As I said, she's probably looking for me but...I'll see you later, Chris."

[geeky-agent.livejournal.com]

"Later," she repeats with a nod.
