You wait for the pirates at the meeting point and you're glad you were able to leave the theater without drawing much attention to yourself. Your grandfather didn't want to let you go at first and suggested that you go home together, but you told him you had to meet Thalia to apologize to her. Your grandfather eyed you calmly.
Since you could no longer look him in the eyes, you gave him a small curtsy and quickly ran away from him.
You breathe out in frustration. The situation is becoming more and more heated and you can still feel your grandfather's blank stare. With your back pressed against the wall, you wait tensely for the others.
You hear footsteps and you push away slightly from the wall to greet the pirates, but when you look into the person's face you freeze in place.
It's Thalia with a disappointed look on her face. For a brief moment you think about running away but it's in vain as Thalia was already grabbing you by your coat.
"W- W- Why weren't you there and saw our play!!!!" Even if she looks really mad and is holding on to your collar, she cries like a little girl. She is an absolute carousel of emotions. Big tears roll down her cheeks and snot runs out of her nose.
She shakes you back and forth because you don't answer her, you have no idea how to explain this to her or what you're even telling her. All the shaking makes you dizzy and you grab her by the shoulders and stop her by putting some pressure on her.
"I'm sorry Thalia!" You half scream at her to drown out her crying. She sniffles at you with red eyes. Her golden eyes burn into yours and you look to the side, at a loss for words.
A little angry, Thalia wipes her tears from her face. Her delicate white skin turns slightly red in the face.
"Callistus is totally disappointed too!" At his name you quickly look at Thalia's face again. You're not happy with it yourself either.
