Lia reached outwards with her arms, yawning deeply before sinking just a little deeper into the couch. It was time for work. She pushed herself up and off the couch walking over to Andy and messing up his hair a little. [color=#ff4500]"I know not [i]everyone[/i] is gonna stay here all day every day, but make sure they stay safe okay?[/color]”. Lia, for a brief moment, let a little bit of fear and doubt claw a gash through her consciousness.

It wouldn’t last, she would not allow it.

She ran back into the bedroom and grabbed her duffel, pulling out a white beanie and a large denim jacket she hastily threw over and behind her head, quickly putting them on. She left the bedroom when she was still halfway through putting the sweater on, attempting to look as prepared as she would for a job she hated. In all seriousness, she was rather lucky to find a job in the first place that she could remain anonymous at. She also had a lot to do today, and she was lucky that if she worked fast she could leave early. All things considered Lia was an incredibly lucky girl for the time being, but she still hated going to work. She made her rounds stopping by each and every person saying a little goodbye before she arrived at Tish.

"[color=#ff4500]You’re heading out too right?[/color]" She said expectantly gazing at the girl’s black hair. She caught a passing glance at a different tattoo each day with Tish – she swore that she was changing them up on her, but that would involve Tish giving a damn about something. That wasn’t really her style. It wasn’t like Tish wasn’t a darling to be around when she wanted to be, but Lia was pretty confident it would be a cold day in hell before Tish actually listened to someone above herself, especially Lia. For now Lia was just grateful she hadn’t decided to leave. In all honesty, it was nice having her around, it brought a feeling of weightlessness to the group. 

"[color=#ff4500]Okay guys, please, please, please be safe today.[/color]" Lia said forcing herself out the door before someone else did it for her. As she took her fledgling steps out the door the paranoia of ‘the hate you’ flooded back into her mind. It happened every time she asked them to be safe, and to calm down, to clean up. For god sakes Ophelia they just ran away from their parents you don’t have to replace them yet.

"[color=#ff4500]I think you’re going to like my surprise Tish.[/color]" Lia said forcing thoughts from her mind to be drowned out by the words she spoke. "[color=#ff4500]It’s got some [i]pizazz[/i].[/color]” She said with the fakest smile this side of the golden gate bridge. But it did have some pizazz, it wasn’t the ideas fault that she was having a rough go of it. The idea was great. The idea was great. It was just that Ophe-. Lia wasn’t a mother, she definitely wasn’t enough for what these kids needed. She wasn’t even sure she had enough for what she needed. But if she could spread herself just thin enough to make them forget for even a single night, then it was worth everything.

[i]Happy birthday Lia.[/i] She said with a rightful amount of disdain as she prepared herself for the menial task of cleaning rooms in front of her.
