Rm 332 - Thursday morning

Penelope was sitting in the furthest corner on her side of the room, on the floor. She'd heard about Hurley on the radio and though her tears had dried up, she was very visibly upset and frightened. She wasn't going to leave her room for anything today. She had Ho Ho's and soda if she became hungry, though she didn't see that happening anytime soon ( Read more... )

Claire had been lucky enough not to notice anything unusual on her way back home from work, and she hadn't woken up when Penelope got home from work. But it was hard not to notice her tear-stained roommate when she got back to the room to get ready for class after her shower.

"Pen? What's wrong?"

Okay, that was not what Claire expected. She assumed it was about Penelope's mother again.

"...who?" she asked, still squishing a towel around to dry her hair.

Angela was only in a mildly better state than she had been the night before, and that was only through sheer force of will. Falling apart was simply not an option.

She left a little early for class, pausing at Penelope's door for a long moment before she knocked.

This was something she felt like she had to do, however much she didn't want to.

Penelope stared at her closed door for a few moments before she got up from the floor and stepped over to it. She opened it a crack but when she saw Angela, she opened it further.

"Hello, Angela."

"Hey, sweetie," she returned quietly after a moment. "I just-- I came to check on you."

It was pretty obvious from Penelope's who demeanor that she knew what was going on. Or had listened to radio at the very least.

She bit her lip to keep it from trembling and just nodded, stepping aside so that Angela could come in.

"Come in please," she offered. "I... I don't think I'm doing very well."
