Reunion

Jacob had been standing, contemplating the builiding in front of him for a good few minutes. He took a few more deeps breaths.

"You can do this, Rothstein. Suck it up."

With those words he walked up to the door, checking the address for the upteenth time. trying not to stare at his shoes. "Here goes nothing."

He knocks on the door.

	"It's fine, Wendi. It's been over ten years. I don't blame you for not recognizing me." Everytime he mentioned those ten years, memories of what Mordru did to his father went through his head. He shook the unwelcome memories from his mind, he had old friendships to rekindle. "How've you been? Cat told me you snagged yourself a boyfriend?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Wendi blushed a little bit. "Yeah. Finally." Man, she'd been just a kid really, when Jacob had dropped out of sight. No wonder she didn't remember. "Wouldn't say snagged. Nic got him for me as a Christmas present." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Good for you. You and I were always the shy ones so maybe there's some hope for me finding someone special myself." He teased with a smile. His expression changed from happy to a little guilty. "Listen Wendi, I'm..I'm sorry for dissappearing like I did. I wasn't in a good place for a long time and I handled it badly. I don't know if your folks told you or if you saw it, that doesn't matter. I ran from you guys and.." He looks down, a somewhat odd sight for a guy standing at 6'6, suddenly shy and solemn. "I'm really sorry."

	Wendi looked up at him. "Dad told me a little about what happened," she said. "But really, Jacob, you don't have to apologize to me. I was, like, eight when you dropped out of sight. Just a kid." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"True, but you were also my friend. I should have at least said goodbye." So far so good. They were very undertsanding, though a few others were left unspoken for. "I just hope Nic doesn't punch me in the face, not that i wouldn't deserve it to an extent." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Maybe more likely to mace you. She really likes that thing," Wendi said. "But if she tries, move to the left. She usually goes right." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jacob flinched at the thought. "Thanks for the advice. I'm not very fast though." It was a half-joke. Nic had a temper even as kids. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"And if she does hit you, well, she usually calms down after she's done that. Probably won't do it again." Wendi might be kidding. (Reply to this)(Parent)
