Cindy Lord had heard rumors, and they hinted at something up with which she would not put.

She dialed. "Michael. We need to talk. Have you eaten?"

Jai doesn't say anything for well over a minute, because he's not sure he just heard Cindy say what she just said.

"This whole situation is between Traya, Michael and myself. I'm not sure what either of them told you, and I don't really care. I know what I saw and I know that Michael was all over my girlfriend. I also know that Traya wasn't exactly shutting him down.

I get that she's your friend, but this really, really is not any of your business, Cindy. So back off." Jai says.

Cindy shrugs. "I'm willing to believe Michael didn't tell me the whole story. He's a jackass. I'm also willing to believe this is none of my business. I know I don't have a goddamn clue what you've been through. Only thing I had to deal with in that whole mess was seeing my soul on display as the grabby little freak I am. I just know a good person who loved you dearly and was devastated by your death not only had to watch you attack her and say horrible things as some soulless thing, she got to see the real Jai back up the idea that she's horrible and worthless as she gets abandoned both by her boyfriend and by the jackass whose shoulder she was crying out her grief on." Cindy walks back over to the door. "I hope things improve. I hope you get your head out of your ass." She opens it to leave.

"You don't have any right to talk to me like that, Cindy." Jai says, barely containing his anger.

"I /know/ what I saw. He wants her. She, on some level, wants /him/. All I did was give them a chance to have what they both wanted, no matter what it cost me." Jai says to her back.

"I don't expect you to get it, Cindy. No one can because they didn't go through what I did. But Traya hasn't exactly kicked down my door to clear things up, so I assumed she was with Michael." he says.

"'Course I don't. But I'm a Lord. We're not supposed to be good people. Michael's avoided her ever since you dumped her. But yeah, but when two guys make you feel like a whore, you're supposed to keep running after them, huh? Whatever, Jai. If you're willing to work on sorting this out, it'll restore the faith I used to have in you."

She'll close the door behind her.

Jai was pretty pissed off. He hadn't needed that, not one bit, but Cindy had managed to wreck his day in less than five minutes.

The sad part was...he couldn't help but think that maybe she was /right/. If Traya and Michael really didn't betray him, then that meant...

he couldn't even think about it. It was too much.

"Mom, I'm leaving!" Jai says, heading for the back door.

This was going to take at least a few laps around the world before he could think straight again.
