Subject: Walks in

After helping out at the Tavern, she walks out into the square, almost unconscious of the fact that her white dress, and slender hands were covered with blood, and the scent of blood and poultice hung in the air around her. Her red hair wafted back by the breeze, her dark blue eyes shining, but not sparkling. She looks down at her blood soaked hands, and dress. She washes her hands in a stream, and does her best to get her dress clean, but succeeding with the dress only a little. She sits down by a rain barrel, not sure whether to cry, or not. She decides to cry quietly. She had never felt emotional like this before, but now she did, and did not know how to deal with it. She wraps her arms around her knees like a school girl, feeling much like one. 'How can I be so foolish, I'm just an idiot. He probably doesn't even remember my name, only that I'm some red-haired little girl that sewed up his wound. He was probably distracted by Teren. Probably can't forget her face, or name. I just had to be too quiet, too mercenary, too...' she hits herself mentally. 'I'm too much of an assassin! No one wants to love an assassin, let alone marry... agh! What am I thinking! I'm too stupid. Think, Summer! I must've lost my mind back there, I don't even know his name...' she stops. Another part of her argues, 'Liar. You know his name. You can't forget it and you never will! You can't change, it wouldn't be real, if you did! You remember the way he trusted you, the way he looked into your eyes...' she bites her lip. 'Shut up. He's not in love with you, and you're not in love with him! You're just taken with him because he's handsome, kind... ach. I have no hope with him, even if I did love him, and that's that!' she smacks her palm with her fist as if to end her arguement. She stands up, and walks around, trembling slightly. A voice in the back of her mind again, whispers, 'Liar.' She kicks a wall, then bites her lip as the pain sears through her leg. Forgetting that she was in a place of public, she shouts to the sky, "I HATE YOU!!!" and kicks another wall, even harder. Slipping into a dark alley, somewhat ashamed of shouting, she paces back and forth, continuing her fight with herself.
