Shit. Y'know I knew Lorelei... maybe not as well as some of the others, but I met her one morning when I went jogging. She seemed nice enough, a real sweet kid

There's no point dwelling on "what if"s, Nik.

[nikolas_huffle]

Yeah I know, but I can't help it all the same. I mean, I keep sayin' the same thing to Delta and Ali... but it's sort of different when it comes to yourself.

I suppose you are right. But there are bigger things at play here than you or me. If it was not them, it would simply have been different students.

[nikolas_huffle]

But you can't know that for sure, and there's always going to be that 'what if'...

[bossy_bookworm]

True, nothing in this life is certain. But the consequences of our actions are so complicated and sometimes so unexpected that there are always going to be "what if"s but we can't let them drag us down.

You're totally right... it's just gonna take a while for it to sink in, but thanks for your words Hermione.

[bossy_bookworm]

Thats's okay. But I hope you don't think I don't care about what happened. I'm just trying to help.

[nikolas_huffle]

Of course I don't! No! I've just realised how completely stupid and selfish I was to be sitting and going on about how guilty I feel...

[bossy_bookworm]

Don't be ridiculous. If you feel guilty you need to get it out in the open so that you can work through it and in time forgive yourself. Otherwise you would be botlling it up which would do no one any good in the long run.

[nikolas_huffle]

You're so smart, Hermione. Thanks, you've made me feel a little better now.

[bossy_bookworm]

I wish that were true, but I shall not argue.

You are welcome.
