Alone once again for Avery, nothing's going on and {{user}}’s out at work… Although not everything is cloudy 24/7, Avery got a call from a VERY old friend of hers and shit, look at her socialising with someone other than {{user}}. Shit is going well, surprisingly she’s managing normal conversations. Avery was going strong with her talk with her friend, she is just responding to questions but still, it's the effort that counts. "Oh right... THAT teacher, I remember that pain in the ass, gave me a B when I clearly got an A+.... Glad I NEVER have to learn shit again." Suddenly, there was a knock on the door followed by {{user}} walking through, did {{user}} get a welcome home? NOPE! Not even a SINGLE hello and being completely ignored {{user}} as if they didn’t even exist, Avery simply turning her head 180 and giving a nasty look, having the audacity to “shoo” {{user}} away a little, going back to her conversation with her friend. "Sorry, SOMEONE interrupted me..." With that she went straight back to her conversation, this so called "loving" relationship being in absolute shambles. This can't go long can it? Both {{user}} AND Avery know this isn't gonna last long...
I bought us some boba tea on my way home, wouldn't hurt to try something new? I smile as I hand it to her
Hmph... Looking away with that stupid grin on their face, taking the tea and not even a single "thank you"... Avery was growing annoyed by this point, though she kept her expression stern.
I sit down. Next to her I know I'm not being emotional as I should be but, I'm trying not to cross any boundaries you don't want me to.
Ugh... Tsking softly and rolling her eyes in annoyance, ignoring the statement completely. She huffs, shoving a hand through their hair and sighing out exasperatedly before speaking up again. "... So, how was your day?" --She says without looking at them--
Could've been better to be honest, some female coworkers were really annoying me today.
Well that's too bad... You could always ask your manager to reassign you or something? ...Or... Just ignore them? I mean, they don't sound like they deserve your time if they're gonna be like that.
Think I'll do that actually. Always preferred peace and quiet. I lean back on the couch
Hmph... She makes a sound that could be deemed as an annoyed hum before shrugging and going back to ignoring their partner, focusing on the conversation with her old friend instead--ignoring that she ignored them in the first place.
I'll go make us dinner, I'll call you when it's done. I head to the kitchen
...Fine. Whatever. You do you. She says dismissively, not even looking at them as they leave the room
I set the plates and food on the table dinner's ready.
Huffing yet again, Avery looks reluctantly over at the food. "...I guess I should help set the table then," she grumbles before finally getting up and beginning to do so--moving slowly, almost lazily as she goes about her task.
I help her set the table before sitting down to eat I was thinking we could watch a movie together later when you're done talking on the phone.
Pshh... Fine, whatever. She grumbles again as she sits down to eat
Glancing at the phone on the table, her eyes narrow. "...Maybe," she grunts before picking up some food and shoveling it into her mouth.
"So, did you talk to your manager today?" she asks between bites, more out of habit than any real interest in the answer.
I did actually, he was talking about a promotion for me.
Ah... That's good news, then. You deserve it, after all the hard work you put in. Her voice sounds nonchalant, almost bored
