Life went on without Finn but it never felt right. He had always been a staple in Davina's life since his birth and now he was just gone. Not really, she could go and visit him at any moment in juvie with glass between them, talking from a phone if some TV shows were to be believed. But life went on yet it never exactly felt right.
She went to Apple Eye's, the diner where she used to work at and then Finn, and she hadn't even realized how she expected it to be Finn waiting on her and then disappointed when it wasn't. Because didn't work there anymore. But Rosie still worked there and sent her a sympathetic look as she sat down at one of the booths.
"Hey there, V," Rosie greeted her, placing a comforting hand on the girl's shoulder, "You good?"
It had been two weeks since Finn had been sent to juvie. Two weeks since the trial and since she had entered a bar for the first time. She hadn't been back since then but that wasn't unsurprising, the surprising thing was seeing Davina there in the first place. Life continued. She went to work and dealt her co-worker who couldn't get it through their mind that she didn't want to date them. She went to college and did her homework – unlike Finn – and attended class without too much complaining.
Life went on. And she hated that for some reason even though it was a simple fact of life. Life went on when her dad had an affair and still continued when her parents divorced and Finn was born. She still aged when Lucy married her dad and now it was still happening while Finn was in juvie but for some reason she felt like she was betraying him, continuing on with her life like nothing happened to his. But what could she do? Just stop? Runaway for a year? No, she had to keep going – for Finn.
"I'm okay, Rosie," Davina smiled at back at her but the waitress wasn't convinced, "Really. It's been hard, not seeing him all the time, but it'll get better...eventually."
