tale
"I didn't want to have to go there."
This was the first thing Thyme said after a while. They were in the aerial subway, crossing the snowy city at full speed. The train was empty, and they were seating in front of one another. Rosemary tore her gaze away from the grey rooftops and looked at Thyme. "Hm ?"
"I didn't want to have to go there."
Thyme was looking at the floor. In her eyes, Rosemary could read guilt. "Why ?" "You'll see." She lifted her face and locked her eyes with Rosemary's. In them, she could read a kindness and the worry that came with it. It always happened like that. It was always the kind ones that fell the most.
They bothed turned back to the windows. The grey city was blending in with the white sky. "Rosemary, I..."
A mechanical voice stopped her. "Now arriving at ▓▓▓▓▓."
"I..."
"Tell me later. We have a cat to find !"
