Maeve
Her shoulders rise and fall with a deep breath that she uses to try and summon some of her usual spark. She can't find it. She's just too tired. His voice is soft. Like he's afraid he might spook her if he speaks too loudly. Maeve turns to look up at him, dark circles under her eyes and face free of makeup. Her smile is wane and doesn't reach her eyes. "Hey..."
Maeve's eyes dip down to the trinket and it's absolutely too much. He just bought a whole day and he probably doesn't even realize it. "Oh wow... It's beautiful." She murmurs, reaching out to run a finger along one of the stones before taking it from him. "It's more than enough.." Maeve swallows thickly, suddenly very aware that it isn't a fair trade. Not given what he put in place.
Her throat feels tight and she wants to cry, but she swallows it down. "So.. What would you like? Can afford anything with something like that.."

Poor little girl
still waiting for her happy ending
