Josie was struggling to keep the umbrella above both of their heads as they walked, seeing as he was a full five inches taller than she way. His conversation was growing dark, upsetting. She heard his feet stop hitting the sidewalk at the mention of dinner and she turned around. Josie felt a gasp leave her throat as she noticed the tears that had trickled down Aaron's defined cheeks. She turned to face him straight on and used the palms of her hand to wipe them away, not caring at all that they were someone else's tears. "Okay, it's okay." She attempted to console him, frowning up at his saddened face. She started to lead him back towards the subway, one hand rubbing his back in her attempts to calm him down. "Then come back to my place. I'll cook you up something." She offered as they stepped down the stairs and towards the platform, folding the umbrella down as they walked. The first train that came, she was ushering him on it. She could tell he wanted to say no. "It's the least I can do." She urged. 

He looked torn, at least that's what she could see in his eyes. As if, he was hungry, but he didn't want to impose and just wanted to go home. She didn't know for sure, however. She had only met him that morning for the first time, for God's sake. She rarely resorted to it, but Josie looked up at him with her big blue eyes, worry playing across her features. "Please. I haven't cooked since I moved in. It'd be nice to actually do it and have someone to cook for. Besides, it's still raining." She smiled up at him, hoping her urging was working in her favor. 

Josie didn't honestly know how to feel. Sorry for him, sure, but more than that. She had this overwhelming urge to want to help him, despite only just meeting him. Her grandmother had once told her that they only had chances to help those in need once. She didn't see him as a charity case, however, which is what her grandmother had meant. She was set on making him feel better, to not have to put up a front of happiness and strength despite being drained from the stress he endured.
