My heart is like the ocean, it gets in the way So close to touching freedom, then I hear the guards call my name...
When Angela arrived at the cafe, she wasn't even sure who she was supposed to be meeting there. Sending message by pigeon was rather archaic; she half expected to see her father waiting for her. But instead, the first person she saw was Abel. She quickly scanned the rest of the cafe, but saw no one else she knew.
And this was Abel. He'd been so weird lately, that a message by pigeon was probably not that far fetched.
Angela chewed her lip for a moment, before finally taking a breath and heading to his table. She had no idea what she was going to say, or what he wanted but, really, she had to stop running from him at some point.
She slid into the booth across from him and said nothing for a long moment, just studying his face silently.
Finally, she said, "Hello Abel. Feeling better?"

Angela watched Abel walk the cat across the table, wondering if his brain was still a little short circuited. That was uncharacteristically playful for the old Abel. Before she could respond, a waitress came by with a plate of strawberry scones. She sighed slightly, staring down at them. He always remembered details like that, didn't he?
"I'm not usually in the habit of catching wild pigeons and eating them," Angela said. "I'm not some sort of weird hobo or something. Besides, you didn't sign the note so I was curious who was sending me a note via carrier pigeon." She pulled out her cellphone and held it up. "Ever heard of text messaging?"
She put her cellphone on the table and chewed her lip. "So..." she said cautiously. "What did you bring me here for?"

Angela looked at the cat, sighing a little. "Well, I felt guilty since I'm the one that hurt you. Not that it was my fault considering you jumped in to save your friend or whatever." She glanced at Abel as he moved to sit next to her. "And why does someone who told me to stay away from him care how I'm doing?" she asked him.
"I'm still alive. Despite that your little friends keep trying to kill me off." She showed him her left arm, which still had the scars from Ian's attack on her. "Actually, I just saw him at the park on my way over. I guess he learned his lesson the first time since he didn't try to attack."
"So yeah, I'm fine. I'm totally fine. As much a b***h as ever, if Malade is to be believed."
Honestly. This man. He made no sense. First he lied, then he told her to stay away from him, lied some more, went nuts and chased her around...and now he was checking up to see if she could survive without him. Typical man. The testosterone in his system had apparently scrambled his logic center.

"I'm curious why you want to check up on me," Angela said, poking at her scones. "Even if you dismissed the Xochi thing as a misunderstanding, somehow, that doesn't change...other things."
She looked at him steadily, amazed she could actually talk about this with him, without getting angry. "Why did you lie to me, Abel?" she asked. She turned toward him. "If you care about me at all--even a little, then I deserve an explanation." She sighed and went back to poking her scones.
"You're the first person I ever cared about that deeply. And you're first person since christine to...to hurt me that deeply. And now that I'm not mad anymore, all I want to know is why everything has to be some sort of big, mysterious secret with you. Do love me, or do you not? Do you love Xochi, or do you not? Are you a good person, or are you not? Do you hate me and want me to stay away from you, or do you not? I thought I knew, but I don't."
She reached over and thumped his forehead. "Yo're a big, walking contradiction Abel. For once, I'd like you to just be completely straight forward with me. What do you really want from me? Really."
