♨ Soren ♨ 24 ♨ Cafe owner

It was about five minutes before they arrived at the cafe. He shrugged at her thanks, not really sure what to say. Pulling out the key he unlocked the door and turned the light on, squinting his eyes at the bright light. Soren led her over to the front counter and had her sit on one of the bar stools. The blond disappeared into the kitchen for a few minutes, returning with a few pastries and a glass of water. Setting it in front of her he sat behind the register with a heavy sigh, wishing he had another smoke.

// Sorry if my replies suck.. my stomach doesn't feel very good..

( Go rest! Please! )

Maddie walked silently and entered, looking around shyly. She sat down on a bar stool and smiled. Trying not to show how hungry she was she ate rather quickly. " T-Thanks " She ate it, gulping the water down quicky. She hated how she was reacting to his kindness, and quickly quieted and became more confident. " Nice place. Do you own it? "

With a heavy sigh Soren laid his head on the counter, his eyelids felt heavy and he had no energy anymore. When asked if he owned the place he frowned, "unfortunately yes.." he mumbled. Silence had soon taken over, that is until the males stomach growled yet again, although he just tried to ignore it and closed his eyes.

// Yeah.. I guess it's cause I'm getting hungry..

Maddie wasn't sure what to do. Was it such a bad place to have enough money to own a place like this. " Appreciate it. Some people don't have thing's like this. " She snapped suddenly, annoyed. She had far less then him, more then some, and yet he seem's to think it's horrible.

( Don't ignore your body. It's trying to tell you something, listen.)

Soren lifted his head slightly, furrowing his eyebrows. "My mother died so I had to take over, this place has gotten me robbed and I could've lost my life that day" he said, his voice deep and rough. The blond pulled out his wallet and took out the cash he had on him, it all totaled to $200. "Here" he muttered, sliding her the money and standing up. Without another word Soren went downstairs, walking to the dart board and grabbing a handful of darts. For some reason darts was a good way for him to blow off steam, either that or cigarettes but he was out at the moment.

// Heh.. yeah my stomach has been growling at me but like Soren I ignore it

[MoonlitWolf2022]

Maddie grumbled. " Still... " She didn't touch the money. Instead she left it and followed him. " I just don't get it... You have so much and yet your not happy! " She shook her head roughly. " Have you seen how many homeless are on the streets? Have you seen the ones willing to do anything to survive? " Her voice was slowly raising. " You could have so much more, and yet you want less! You don't even try to help! " She glared at him, upset.

( Seriously, eat something, feel better. )

Soren jumped at her sudden entrance, his dart missing the target and falling to the ground. His grip on the remaining darts tightened as he listened to her. "Money doesn't buy happiness. I'm grateful for what I have but that doesn't mean I'm happy" he said, his heart was pounding. The blond set the remaining darts on one of the tables and brushed past her, going upstairs and starting to head out the door. However he ended up collapsing in the doorway, his breath heavy and shallow.

// Maybe.. I might just sleep it off haha

[MoonlitWolf2022]

( Your stubborn aren't you... )

She glared at him. "It buys stuff that makes people happy. It buys food and water!" She shouted, moving away and following him. She didn't know she was this upset about her life. She followed him upstairs quietly and clenched her fists. " I'm- " She stopped looking at him collapsed in the doorway and stood stock still. She had no idea what to do and went over. " Hey. Hey! Are you okay!? " She asked

Soren's ruby red eyes slowly slid closed. He had absolutely no more energy. His whole body felt weak and everything hurt. The blond kept going in and out of consciousness, although he didn't bother to open his eyes.

// Heh yeah.. kinda.. I'm sorry

[MoonlitWolf2022]

( Don't be. I'm stubborn too. )

Maddie panicked, not knowing what to do. She used her strength from climbing walls to push him up right and looked around, running and jumping over the counter to the kitchen with ease to get something. Food? Water? She didn't know what to do. She grabbed the nearest glass and filled it with water, and went and found something that smelt really sweet. She ran back over, going through the gate that separated the front from the back and went over to him. " Hey! Eat this. Drink some water! I'll get help.. " She said, trailing off nervously as she said she'd get help.
