estdeus_innobis[Monday noon]
[April 12th (day 316)]
[Verite’s apartment over the salon]
Got up with Ri this morning, since it didn’t see right to stay asleep in her bed while she’s working. It wasn’t bad, as mornings go: she let me make her French toast, and there was quite a bit of kissing before she went down to open the salon. I cleaned up the kitchen and went out to get things for lunch. Her kitchen’s all right, but you can tell she doesn’t cook a lot.
Still no word from Tarquin or about him. Mentioned him to Ri, and she said she’d met him, before I did, even, before that night in the snow. Need to stop thinking about that. He’s gone, that’s plain, and I can only hope it was back to Joshua and pray he’ll get there safely. Think about following him when I’ve got enough saved.
Money’s been a little less of a worry lately, though, since Miao handed me back every single penny of rent I’d ever paid Glass. Knew how much it should be, but I still had to count it twice. Still can’t think of any reason why she’d do it. Maybe Iago had a hand in it, for all Miao said Glass came by herself to drop it off. I know she’s not used to having more money than she knows what to do with, but maybe she felt badly for turning us out. Wouldn’t bet on it, but I won’t say no to the money. All the rent. Jesus Christ.
In any case, it was no great hardship to buy a good sized chicken and some vegetables and a few other things that caught my eye. I can make a meal out of pretty much anything, but I am trying to earn my keep here. Food needs to look presentable. Managed to put together a decent chicken stew, thick with carrots and onions and potatoes, and some cornbread before noon. Don’t feel like putting on my boots to go out into the salon proper, so I just set it out on the table and wait for Ri to come back in.
