[center][h1][color=f7976a]Xia Alexander[/color][/h1][/center] [center][h3]Tuesday - Sol City Hospital - Hephaestus Manor[/h3][/center] It was not the easiest ride home. For one, her pride was pretty much hurt being that she was usually much more careful and to get a beating that she took and not at least knocking one of them out, it was a shame to her. She was pissed for the fact that she did MMA for a little only to get a cheap shot done on her and lost the fight like she did. Then comes her feeling vulnerable. She don't know if these guys knew her or what but a hint of fear was in the back of her head feeling these guys when where she lived and could come back at any time. Xia did take a loo at her girlfriend when she tried to reassure her that she was there for anything she needed. [color=f7976a]I just want to get in a comfy piece of furniture and relax.[/color] She said. [color=f7976a]I...I don't like asking much from you babe...[/color] she said not wanting to be a problem. Xia felt that she could do well by herself while Marlin was working. [color=f7976a]And I don't mind where you put me as long as I have close access to the bathroom.[/color] she said with a weak smirk. After her slight aching struggle, Xia managed to unlock the door and open it to the manor. She walked in with her and she was willing to go wherever she needed but with stairs, it would be a nuisance but she'd try and walk them. She nodded. [color=f7976a]Thanks babe, you're too nice to me. And yeah...Carlo has his moments. he's becoming a better person. just needs to work on...his attitude.[/color] She said coming in and looked around a little wondering what all Carlo brought over from her place. The steps were a pain but Xia was able to climb them and then gently sat on the couch trying to get comfy. hearing there was disney plus, she smirked. She had to admit, she liked the Star Wars shit. She just hoped she wouldn't get too bored being stuck in the house all the time. not that Marlin was boring, Xia just loved being active and for her to slow things down because of injuries, she didn't know how she was going to get through this. Xia's mother soon called marlin's phone wanting to let her know she was already in town not giving her a heads up beforehand that she was on her way. She was hoping Marlin could bring her to the house or...she could have Carlo bring her instead. Being that Marlin may miss the call, she spoke on the voice mail. [b][i]"Marlin, this is Keyla, I'm here in the city at the airport and wanting to see if you can come and pick me up. If not, I'll just have Carlo come and bring me to you and Xia."[/i][/b] She left before hanging up waiting on a call back. She just couldn't wait and out of rushing, she forgot to let Marlin know she was on her way. Xia sat for a moment with her eyes closed trying to relax for a bit until the food would come and knowing how hungry she was, she would tear up anything that was made for her. [@PrinceAlexus]
