[Okay, focus. Need to find out who tried to burn my family alive,] Melisa thought as Vira settled next to her, close enough that their thighs touched. [Just gotta be subtle about it. Which would be easier if she wasn't practically falling out of that top.]
She had to start somewhere, though, and the best she could think of right now was:
"Rough morning?" Melisa asked, nodding toward where Koros had stormed out.
"Brothers," Vira sighed and fell over the counter dramatically. "Always think they know what's best. Especially when they're being fucking idiots."
[Like trying to burn down houses with kids inside kind of idiots?]
"Yeah?" Melisa took a sip of her definitely-not-just-juice drink. "What kind of stupidity we talking about here?"
Vira's hand found Melisa's thigh, fingers drawing lazy circles on purple skin.
