An Unexpected Surprise (OTA)

[ellelovespink]

Elle had been in the village for a couple of weeks and had fallen into the habit of going for a walk daily with Bruiser. They had been out for about half an hour when she turned down a different street and stopped in her tracks at the sign she saw. It read Hauvartat Law Firm. All the horrible feelings she had carefully avoided dealing with since arriving at the village came rushing back and all she could say was "What??" She must be seeing things. Elle didn't understand how a law firm here could stay in business. But what was really bothering her was that her epic failure at law school was what had brought her here. She knew that, so why isn't she going back home? Picking up a rock, she drew back her hand and aimed it at the office's plate glass window. Elle wanted to throw it so bad, but she couldn't. It wasn't right to damage someone else's property. Elle collapsed on a nearby bench, buried her face in her hands and started to cry. Bruiser jumped up beside her and started to whine. She hugged him, but it didn't stop the tears.

((OOC: Feel free to run into Elle in the lobby or on the street as well. The law firm thread will be last.))
