Who had wronged who, the spider or the fly? Right and wrong had long since melded together until it became unrecognizable. Perhaps Cain and her had sinned when they had failed to reach out to their hurting friend... but, hadn't Keida left them first? The memory was clear inside her head. One day, the rambunctious child merely stopped showing up to play. She and Cain had tried to reach out at first, but when Keida got into less appealing hobbies, Cain decided it would be for the best to let him go. Haley didn't disagree because she saw it too; Keida became a different person before their very eyes, one who always seemed to make the wrong decisions.<br/><br/>"Friends grow apart sometimes," she was still trying to comfort him. "It doesn't make you a bad person."<br/><br/>He'd embraced her then, again, like they were lovers. Keida had a way of messing with her head. They were friends and yet they were not. They were something more and yet they had to be a secret at all times. Seeing the vulnerability he'd shown her made her feel sorry for him. So she let him do what he pleased with his hands and lips. He was drunk, he probably wouldn't even remember this in the morning. She'd help him then send him back home before Cain could show up. That was the ideal, but of course, things never really went her way. She smiled slightly when her cooking was complimented but merely nudged the plate closer toward Keida when he'd asked for a kiss.<br/><br/>Little did she know, she'd made the right choice ignoring his request. Cain came walking through the front door, and for once, the radiant boy looked absolutely livid. He was quick to smother the anger, but she'd seen the way he'd stared at Keida and the way he'd balled his fists. Her heart leaped into her throat. She knew she could explain this current situation to him, but even Cain had to have a limit when it came to coincidences involving Keida.<br/><br/>"I can explain," Haley said as she raised an arm in front of her. Keida beat him to the punch and disappeared into the bathroom. She was alone with Cain and he wasn't happy. "He is... he showed up 15 minutes ago looking terrible. He was drunk and sad so I brought him in and offered him a meal to help him sober up." It was the truth. She of course left out the parts about what had transpired in the hall and in the kitchen before he'd walked in. "I didn't want to leave him standing out there."<br/><br/>Haley closed the distance between herself and Cain before she greeted him with a soft kiss to the cheek. She hoped it would alleviate his anger somewhat. Slowly, she leaned in to  hug him before pulling away. "I can send him home after he finishes his food. We'll watch that movie your brought with you as soon as he leaves. Does that sound good?" She waited for Cain to respond. "I'll be right back, just going to see if he's alright."<br/><br/>Haley would then offer Cain a reassuring smile before she made her way upstairs to the bathroom in the hall. She knocked on the door once before realizing Keida hadn't locked it. Tentatively, she stepped inside and closed it behind her. "Keida, are you okay? You should finish the rest of your meal when you're feeling better."
