Fix things with Mari. How hard could it be?
Sucking up a breath, I approached Mari and Akilah hesitantly. They noticed me, pausing their conversation as they looked up at me. Akilah gave me a small smile, but Mari looked away awkwardly. Sensing we needed to talk, Akilah stood up and patted my arm before giving us some space.
"I know you hate me, but I'm worried and I just wanna make sure you're okay," I spoke when she didn't, hovering by her as if waiting for her to argue again.
She sighed, pulling off her gloves and tossing them to the side. "I don't hate you."
I tried to hide my surprise. "You don't?"
She shook her head slowly. And when she didn't say anything, I took that as my chance to sit beside her, crossing my legs.
"Then what's happening with us, Mar?" I asked carefully. Still, she said nothing, just picked at her jeans with her forefinger and thumb. So, I continued, "I know I'm not your family, but–"
"I'm sorry for saying that," she interrupted, finally looking up at me with a slight frown. "I didn't mean it." Her hand rested on mine. "I'm really glad you're here, Y/N."
I placed my other hand on hers, squeezing it gently, a sense of relief filling me. "Thanks."
"I don't know what to say," she admitted, looking to the fire. "I just want things to get better. Lottie makes sense to me and you don't need to get it. That's all."
"You're right, I don't get it," I agreed quietly, still struggling to grasp the reasoning behind it all.
"It's because of Lottie that we're okay," she explained like it was obvious.
I winced slightly, unconvinced. "It's not, Mar."
She let go of my hand, exhaling deeply. "Agree to disagree then. But I don't want to lose you because of it."
My expression softened when I saw the sincerity in hers. "Neither do I."
Her shoulders relaxed at this and she held my gaze. "I'm sorry."
I nodded, appreciating her apology. "Thank you. You need to know I only get like this because I care... Like today with Natalie. That wasn't fair of you, Mar."
