DELPHINE
I am a day dreamer,
and a night thinker.
Delphine hadn’t expected to be successful in trying to pull Noah away—in fact, she’d been busy blinking back her embarrassment; there were things she’d yet to tell the man—things he’d yet to ask about. Like how she had managed to keep herself and two children fed.
However, she had not been expecting him to flip the table, sending all of the herbs—drugs or otherwise—tossed to the ground. For a moment, she was busy thumbing through the herb packets, handing what she wanted off to Poe, who chirped and hopped around holding the strings of various pouches that he was handed.
Always a faithful partner-in-crime.
By the time Delphine had finished taking what she wanted, Noah was threatening the man, and she moved to wrap an arm around his middle, “Noah, we should leave. Come on.” She insisted quietly. Poe had taken off, carrying the stolen herb pouches with him.
“Noah… You’ve not got to stand up for me. He’s not lying,” she insisted, softly. “I… did use to sell my body to him, for my habit.” She released his middle, and moved to reach for one of his hands, “He’s just someone from my past, c’mon.”
