Stress eating (D3 LE Kitchen)

[Mei-Ling Zhou]

"So....If you made the person you are mad at pay for their mistake why is there still a problem?" She spoke low and softly. She could tell that this was all very upsetting to Yori and firmly believed that talking about your problems was good for you so she wanted to give Yori a chance to talk.

"I should rephrase. It was my mistake and I paid for it and continue to pay for it. By contrast my commanding officer, the one who benefited from it most refused to acknowledge any culpability."
Indeed, Yori's blinking was now almost at a normal rate, indicating distress.

"I'm sorry, I don't mean to upset you it sounds like your anger is well founded. I hope you can find some resolution."

Mei deeply regretted having dredged this all up and caused Yori pain.


Fuck I'm stupid.

Neutrally"There is no need to apologise Sergeant Zhou, and I appreciate your well wishes."
There's a pause
"I need to go to my room now though. I need to clear my mind and see my fish."
She calmly pushes her chair back and stands, still blinking normally.
"Thank you for sharing your meal, and for the conversation."

Mei rose from her seat as Yori did.

"OK yeah I understand I'm...if you ever wanna talk about it I'm here. Thank you for eating with me. Have a good night."

She folded her hands in front of herself and hung her head.

Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.

She folded her hands in front of herself and hung her head.

Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.

She nods calmly
"I understand. Maybe we can talk again in the future when you come to see the fish?"
Clearly unsure what to do Yori pauses a moment and then robotically pats Mei's hung head.
"There there. There there."
And then she turns and walks slowly away.

((Thank you very much for the scene ))

((That was fantastic, thank you))
