So, as the bus halted and jerked and swayed in the way buses do, Tex rose and proceeded to lead the way off. She repeatedly glanced back to Li to make sure he wasn't falling over or anything -- didn't want anything to further that damn head injury of his. She makes her way down the steps effortlessly, and then waits for Li at the bottom, ready to sort of help him if he happened to fall. Anyway, as they begin the short walk up the partially paved drive, she looks to him, "You gonna be okay?" She was watching him carefully, afraid that her buddy would pass out at any second. She rummages around in her pack for her keys and slides one bronzed one into the lock, twisting and turning until a faint click was heard. Tex swung open the door and stepped in, leaving it open to Li.. and she went through the normal bit of 'arriving home'. She tossed her keys and pack on the couch, which had a tank full of pretty fish behind it. And then, as she steps into the kitchen to check her messages, she halts -- her jaw goes a little slack and her eyes sort of glass over at the sight of it. A white rose. A hand flies to her mouth to cover the slack jawed expression upon her features. And then, with unsteady hands she pulls the single rose from the newly bought vase, the card that was died to it with black ribbon simply read.. Hello Tex, my darling.. I'm home.. - Daddy She drops the rose and turns to Li, recovering quickly and moving to shut and lock the door.. "Want something to drink? I've got something of everything." And Tex MacBride.. she smiles.
