carter meets time capsule.・:*:・゚'✫,'✫'゚・:*:・˙
sometime wednesday night!
As the school day ended, Carter found herself back in the apartment just in time for her father to finish up a meeting in the spare room. As she closed the door behind her, Aspen's voice rung out.
"Baby me, is that you?"
Carter's face morphed into a grin. "Yeah, just me!"
Dropping her bag in excitement in the front hall, Carter made her way into her dad's new makeshift office. His scent of pine hit her as she hugged him in greeting.
"I'm glad you're home," Aspen chuckled."I didn't realize how empty this place could feel."
Carter just pushed her face farther into his chest.
"What are your plans tonight, kid?" Her dad asked as they pulled away from each other.
"Homework," Carter shrugged. "Like always. Are you hungry?"
Aspen thought for a moment. "I could go for a pastry. Know any places?"
Farkle's words echoed in her mind. Carter pulled out her phone and searched in google maps.
"There's a place I haven't tried yet called Topanga's," Carter suggested to her dad. "Ever heard of it?"
The name sparked recognition in Aspen. He let out a laugh. "I have an old friend named Topanga, actually. I wonder. Let's do it."
The walk was light, and luckily it was a perfect evening in New York City. In the fall, any trees or parks around them would turn into the perfect autumn scene. The weather was never too hot or too cold, and one could always rely on hidden spots in the city to find solace. Topanga's was a hole in the wall, quite literally.
Aspen had told Carter all about his old friend on the journey there. The competitive streak in the two of them academically pushed them to their limits, and they almost dated in high school after Topanga and her long term boyfriend had broken up briefly. In the end, they had remained great friends and Aspen had met Carter's mother. Life happened, and they'd lost contact after college.
Carter and her father shared an excited look before making their way down the stoop steps to the inside of the shop. A little bell defined their entrance, and a woman she could only describe as gorgeous greeted them from behind the counter.
