The reply is out of Josh's mouth before he can hold it in but the cafe door is closing in his face by the time he's done with it leaving a cutesy picture of a pink pudgy round thing holding a tray of cupcakes all Josh can see. He moves away from the door and leans against the side of the building instead, letting his head fall back against the wall.
Put a smile on her face? Make sure she's safe and happy?
If Caspar was serious about that he'd keep her out of the Nexus altogether. At least until he was able to find this sick fuck. Thing is, Josh is pretty sure he's always serious when it comes to Adia so the choice just doesn't add up. Josh doesn't understand. If it were his sisters--
No. Don't start that right now. He's no good to anyone if he's ten layers deep into his own skull talking to the dead. He takes a deep breath and presses his head uncomfortably hard against the wall until Josh's sure he's grounded. Good? Yeah, good. Good as he can ever get, at least.
When Caspar comes back out with his sweet smelling treats in adorable designs, Josh is waiting for him.
"I don't get it." Straight and to the point. "I know you're not fucking around when it comes to Adia, but why let her come here if you know it's not safe? You guys have a house and a cat and shit, so...why?"
