"If there's anything I can do..." He offered just casually, because he doubt the guy would accept any help, but he felt he had to at least suggest it. He really wasn't usually the type to concern himself with other peoples' affairs, but it was the still proud look in the young guy's eyes, and the way he stood up straight, with his shoulders back, despite his jacket that wasn't quite up-to-par for autumn in this town and his obvious lack of R&R. "Is that her?" He questioned almost reluctantly - he could hear the coughing, and the few glimpses that he had caught of her over the past few months had suggested that she wasn't doing too well. -- RD Present: The Boardwalk

He ran his hands through his hair for a second before he nodded slowly. "Yeah...she's been getting worse every day, coughing keeps her up at night so she's not getting any rest to make her better..." He frowned softly, pursing his lips, it was good to just vent about it. "I don't know what to do with her. She's not eating right..." Money had been so damn tight that portions had been small and she had been skipping meals and eating less so that Jackie and Astrid could get more - he didn't know where Lysia developed this sudden sense of rightousness at but it was getting in the way of her previous 'only the strong survive' mentality. "...thats not helping her at all and then plus being stuck in that damn place with all the smoke and the dirty old men..." (NT) -- Joey, Sat, Oct 08 2005, 12:26pm PDT
