[QUOTE="Agamon, post: 1629726, member: 184"] "Good gracious, girl," Mama says, as Miguel takes Alita upstairs. "She's been fine all day. Put her to work this morning, which she graciously accpeted, and with a lot less whining than I often put up with from you, boy. We watched your news conference on the TV and she looked so tired, so I left her there afterwords while I went to fold some laundry. Somebody coulda told me of the poor girl's condition before leaving her with me," she says with a frown directed at Tyrone. Kiro, not sure what to make of either Mama or Alita, just stands out of the way, silently observing. Angela also seems a little reserved, but mumbles aloud, "Just like Christmas back home." She follows Tyrone out to the back and offers to help set things up. Out front, Sarah pokes her head around the side of the house. Seeing Misha, she steps out, brandishing a cigarette. "Pretty hectic in there, I imagine?" She looks at her cigerette and adds, "This bother you? I can retreat back to my hiding spot if it does." Miguel can't elicit a repsonse from Alita, and touching her causes her to jerk away, but a casual inspection of her arms (she's wearing a sleeveless shirt) and the symptoms she's showing lead him to believe she's probably been freebasing, crack being the drug of choice for prostitutes where he grew up. With some coaxing, she goes upstairs to the bedroom, barely registering the fact that the house is full of poeple. When Miguel comes back down, Mama pats him on the shoulder. "You're a good boy for looking out for her like that. You don't worry about us, you take good care of her. I'll bring you some food, and her too, if she's willing to eat." Getting back upstairs and entering the bedroom, Alita's up and out of bed and heading for the door. "I can't take this anymore," she says, sniffling, trying her best to maneuver around Miguel to leave the room. [/QUOTE]
