You make my heart shake bend and break
She certainly doesn’t seem okay. With everyone either sick or dealing with the sick, nobody has had time to be normal. It’s a lot and it’s tiring everyone out, which is apparent based on Melita’s response.
Her question brings a sigh and a shake of his head. ”No, I haven’t seen much of anyone since I came here.... I’ve only been around the people in the Grounds and even then, my memory of the last few weeks... it’s shitty, to be perfectly honest.” Vague memories of the people he spoke with surfaced, but none were helpful. None at all. ”I.... I did see Samuel and... he’s not doing great, not at all” Once more, his memories of his interactions were foggy, but he remembered clearly one of the things Samuel said to him.
A soft sigh and Oliver shakes his head. ”Ive been better...” His voice trails off and he nibbles on his lip. Judging by how Melita is speaking, she seems fine. She isn’t sick and that’s good, but he also is aware that she probably knows everything. Surely she’s heard about the sickness. ”I... just got the water, not long ago at all... and I have a lot to think about before it goes away.” It’s probably best to be honest with her, should she seek him out in the near future.
