Faye smiled warmly. “I’ll be around. Not like I have work to do,” she said with a lopsided grin before moving away.

“Well dont be a stranger,” He said with a wave before dusting of his hands and then leaving through the entrance they had come through. Pleasantly happy and dirty Luke made his way back to his quarters.

Stepping outside of the greenhouse, Faye grabbed the two shovels, brushed off all the dirt and headed to the storage room to put them away.

Four days later, Faye was once again working in the garden. She had been by a couple days ago to check on the seedlings but hadn’t stayed long. Today though she needed some serious time to think and often working in the garden helped her sort through things more calmly.

Alex’s words from the other night had been circling through her brain over and over and over again. And the more she thought about it the more she kept wanting to throw up. Once again the two disparate realities were forcing themselves to lie side by side and she was struggling to know what to do. She never wanted to hurt anyone. But that was the painful reality. No matter what someone got hurt. Alex said she wasn’t broken the way she thought she was, but in this moment she highly disagreed. She was an unintentional wreaking ball crashing her way through other lives and right now she hated herself for it.

Kneeling next to her plot, she was digging holes and transplanting the plants from the other day that she had forgotten about. They were little plants that would form a tidy compact border around her plot and was a part of the design she had in mind. The obelisk stood proudly in the middle and would have a flowering vine growing all over it eventually. Right now she wanted to knock it over. So she dug more holes and focused on gently transplanting the seedlings.
