My therapist mentioned referring me to a psychiatrist for anxiety medication, then at the next appt. said it wasn't a good idea as it doesn't the issue. I would've loved the temporary relief though...

Started calisthenics today; not to lose weight, but to get toned and get a little stronger. It's a 5x/week type deal ChatGPT drew out for me, but my snap, crackle, pop knees sure do love to complain..

She looked up after Marcel gave the signal, watching as the men behind the sniper rifles turned their attention elsewhere away from her and the others on the ground floor. Even though her innocence had been acknowledged and this was a huge relief for Amelia, she had hoped to get some rest, not head straight into another delivery job. But she remained quiet as she followed Marcel and his crew, knowing that she would lose more than a handful of cash if she were to refuse.

As she kept walking, Amelia's mind drifted to past memories of her childhood back in Cuba. She remembered playing games in the school yard with the rest of her classmates, especially that one time she was accidentally tripped and ended up chipping her front left tooth. She remembered one of the teachers walking her home immediately after the incident to show her mother the damage. She remember her mother overreacting at something that seemed so small and meaningless to Amelia at the time. She remembered it all, and she wondered how life would have turned out had they never left the island.

But, just like that, she was back in the real word as she quickly sidestepped in order to avoid running into one of Marcel's minions.

Kelly turned her head to stare at Czigani for a second as the young woman scrambled for some money. "Yeah, I could eat right about now," she replied before focusing on the road once more. Kelly turned into the lot where the diner was located as she came to the realization that she was pretty hungry as well. "Honestly, who would ever be foolish enough to turn down free food?" she added jokingly. After finding one of the parking spots closest to the restaurant and pulling in, Kelly turned off the car and looked at Czigani.

“I hope you’re as excited as I am for our first date.”

She got out of the car then, and as the crisp air made contact with her skin, giving her goosebumps, Kelly couldn’t help but be doubtful of her “relationship” with Czigani. It had happened so fast, and she got so caught up in it all, that she was afraid she was going to regret everything. She had nothing against the woman, but her past relationships had all been with men, and something this new and unfamiliar scared her a little bit. Kelly was curious, but she was also afraid that she might not like the experience and then she'd be stuck deciding whether to hurt Czigani or break off whatever they have. These decisions tugged at her, but Kelly shook them off as she walked across the parking lot with Czigani by her side.

It's okay, it happens. I'll roll with what you have now.
The young woman was torn. Marcel was acting as if he didn’t have a care in the world, but she had no doubt that he had some sinister plan brewing in his head. Amelia never had a problem with her deliveries before, aside from those that could easily be proven to be someone else's mistake anyway. But in this case, he believed that this was entirely her fault.

"For what it's worth, you can go through my stuff," she said, dumping her bag to the side on the dust-covered floor. “I have nothing to hide, and I’m sure others can tell you the same if you ask them. Besides, it’s not like I’d risk getting ratted out by giving away some bullets for a little bit of extra cash.” As she spoke, she maintained eye contact with Marcel to reassure him that she was being completely honest. Amelia then took a few steps forward to close the gap between the two of them. “Your supplier, that is the person you need to go after. Never mind that he's probably ripped you off a couple of times before and it somehow slipped past you and your men."

Amelia very well knew that her criticism of Marcel's crew would land her in even more hot water, but she wouldn't make such statement if she didn't fully stand by it.
Damn right I am @AcerRo.

But there's a way I can let it slide. I hate cliffhangers, so you can write up a summary of what happened to the characters and give the game closure once and for all.
Good luck! I completed grad school this past Spring, although that last semester gave me migraines.

EDIT: I'll wait to post after someone else.
I'd slap you dramatically just now for what you did.
@pugbutter The actor is actually French, his name is David Belle. He's nowhere near 6'6 though.
I edited my post only to link a photo of my NPC.
She took a moment to rest, sitting down on the ground with her back leaning up against the wooden light pole. Amelia felt extremely tired despite of the fact that this was a quick trip, but she hadn't been eating too much lately. It was a combination of both her picky attitude and a lack of adequate choices, and that was enough to slow her down again. Yet, on the other hand, she also worried about her customers. Not necessarily because she needed their business, but because she was afraid to disappoint them. Here you don't have to worry about negative reviews online, but what you do have to worry about is the creative way in which you're going to get tortured or killed--or possibly both--if you don't deliver as expected. With that thought in mind, Amelia forced herself to her feet, continuing whatever was left of her short journey to the warehouse.

About 10 minutes passed before she reached her destination. The young woman was extremely careful how she made her approach, trying to avoid startling anyone stupid enough to be scared by her. She noticed Marcel sitting on some blocks near the wall to her right, so she approached him as she removed some of her gear in order for him to recognize her. He motioned for her to drop off the bag a few feet in front of him, and Amelia happily obliged. So far so good.

After Marcel opened up the bag, he looked inside for a moment before his body stiffened up. "Where is the rest of the ammunition?" His accent was very thick, and his deep voice made him sound even more intimidating. Amelia's breath caught in her throat as she scrambled for an appropriate answer to provide him.

"That's all they gave me..."

There was a brief pause before he looked at her. She was only able to see his eyes, but Amelia knew that he was anything but happy at the moment. Without breaking eye contact, the man got to his feet, towering over the young woman as his height reached an even 6'6. Amelia instinctively took a couple of steps back, her fight or flight response wanting to kick in but the growing fear paralyzing her. She had few options, and none of them looked appealing.
