The moment the door closed behind the two women, the cheater's wife broke down into sobs. Leti pulled the woman's face to her chest, gently cradling her in a comforting embrace. [color=fff200][i][b]"Get it out hun, get those tears out."[/b][/i][/color] While rubbing the woman's back, as the sobs continued loudly, Leti's eyes quickly took in her surroundings. For a resident of Undercity, this woman had a surprisingly comfortable and tasteful home. She even had one of those fancy security systems across the door and windows. Well, that ruined one plan of unlocking an unused window for Ghost to slip in sometime, but that was a crappy plan anyways. Besides, Leti already had a knew one forming behind that shark-like grin. As the sobs died down a bit, Leti pulled away, but made sure to keep physical contact, so that the woman would continue to feel the trusting bond. Moving toward an open doorway, what she assumed was a living room or common room of some sort, [color=fff200][b][i]"Come on hun, let's sit down."[/i][/b][/color] Moving into the living room, the decor did not disappoint, aside from one area. There was a recliner, littered with crumbs and beer cans and other disgusting things lazy men left behind. Knowing that might set the woman off, she guided the woman, hand in hers, so that she turned with her back to the recliner as they sat on a surprisingly comfortable sofa. Leti easily slipped into the guise of the most caring of listeners as the woman told the entire story of her life with that pig. They'd been young lovers, and back then he was caring and hardworking. But one day she got a surprisingly good job as an overseer at one of the best factories in Undercity, and about the same time he lost his own job. Feeling emasculated, he'd slipped into sloth and apathy, which then became anger and bitterness. They grew more distant as he pushed her away. But she never thought he'd stray, that all he needed was a job to feel important again. Then she came home to find him with that skank. The story finished, the woman looked utterly defeated, and clearly feeling very ugly, self-conscious, and alone. Leti tipped the woman's chin up, so her water eyes met her own firm ones. [color=fff200][b][i]"You're far better off without him. The only good he ever had in him, was because of you. This beautiful apartment, your job, all of it shows how much better you are. We need to purge him from this place."[/i][/b][/color] The woman's eyes showed that she didn't really understand. [color=fff200][b][i]"Well, we could always just toss all his crap out, maybe set it on fire, just to prove a point to that bastard."[/i][/b][/color] Leti knew that any Undercity native would never just destroy perfectly good possessions. But she needed to make it seem as if her true idea was the woman's. The woman spoke up, [color=f26522]"But, that's so wasteful. We spent good money on his stuff. I could never burn it."[/color] Leti looked as if she were surprised by the logic and novelty of her comment. [color=fff200][b][i]"You could just sell it then, get some of your money back! Korbil's place is just down the way."[/i][/b][/color] The woman considered it, and smiled, [color=f26522][i][b]"The bastard would hate that, having to buy his stuff back at twice the price. Alright, let's do it."[/b][/i][/color] Thankfully, most of the stuff in the apartment was hers, so it didn't take long for them to gather up his things in a few large boxes. During this time, they exchanged names, pleasantries, and various tidbits about one another. Leti made sure to occasionally provide a comforting touch and a mildly lustful look at the woman, only to make it seem as if they were nothing. The trick was to keep them guessing. Once everything was packed, the two woman lugged the stuff down to Korbil's shop. The woman wasn't a great haggler, and Korbil knew Leti from past dealings, and the two had a silent understanding. Leti helped the woman be comfortable with lower payouts, and Korbil would pay her the difference of what he would've actually paid. It was a win-win. The woman had a hefty haul of coin and bill now, tucking them safely away on her person, as they both turned to leave. Leti grabbed her share from Korbil, secretly, knowing that if he shorted her, it would be nothing to mention this slight to Keith. [b][i][color=f26522] "You really made this whole situation better Leti, if you hadn't showed up, I'd probably be trying to get him back by now."[/color][/i][/b] Leti smiled, moving in a bit closer, hip to hip with Sandra, [b][i][color=fff200]"It's nothing. When you've had nothing but bad men, you take care of the good women. Especially the beautiful ones."[/color][/i][/b] As they came closer to Leti's home, she knew it was time to depart, but she wanted an in for later. [color=fff200][i][b]"I have to go home and get ready from work," [/b][/i][/color] making sure her face showed disappointment. As she turned to leave, she heard Sandra call out, [color=f26522]"Leti, wait."[/color] Smiling to herself, she turned back, waiting for her to speak. [b][i][color=f26522]"Will I... Will I see you again?"[/color][/i][/b] Leti just smiled, slinking forward, before lightly placing her hands on either side of Sandra's face, pulling it close as she pressed their lips together, firmly, seeking her out. After a long moment, she pulled away, looking Sandra in the eyes,[color=fff200][i][b] "Only if you want to. I'll be at the Dark and Stormy later tonight, do you know it?" [/b][/i][/color] The woman nodded, [color=fff200][b][i]"Good, then you know where to find me."[/i][/b][/color] With that, Leti turned and left, knowing she had the hook in deep. She took a round about way to get back home, slipping inside, sneaking into her and Ghost's room, and stashing her money away. She knew Ghost knew about her stash, but there would be so much hell if he touched even a penny of it. Once that was safely hidden, she made her way back to the group, assuming they'd worked out some sort of plan for this evening's work. It was about that time. She said nothing, not wanting to interrupt, leaning against the door frame, arms crossed over her chest.
