Parthenon Resort

Riley

I sigh, "Now you put me on pressure," I chuckled. "I'm actually waiting for my parents. Have you seen them?" I ask.

Seth

I flash a smile at her, but shake my head, "No, I'm afraid I've never set eyes on your parents. If they were to have passed by, I wouldn't know it."

Riley

I nod, glancing around. "Seen a short girl with long blonde hair, green eyes, a whiskey in her hand?" I ask, flicking my eyes to the bar, knowing that's the first place my mom would go. "Or a tall guy, brown-ish, black-ish hair, blue eyes?" I ask, knowing my dad would be trying to get my mom to stop drinking.

Seth

"Uh, no," I shake my head, "Sorry. Are you sure they were supposed meet you here and not somewhere else?"

Riley

I nod. "My mom said here. But she's always late so she'll be here soon," I sigh, leaning back in my chair.

Seth

I nod and take another swig of my drink, sitting back as well.

Riley

I glance at his drink. "Is that liquor?" I ask, sighing. "How can you drink that? Ew."

Seth

I smile, swirling the drink, "Not liquor. Cream Soda."

Riley

I nod, "Ah. Cool," I smile. I glance at my bracelet my mom gave me. It had a blue fire sign on it. I looked up at Seth. "Athena, huh? That's cool."

Seth

I look back at her, nodding, "Sort of. S'hectic sometimes. People expect too much."

Riley

I nod and shrug. "Yeah. I bet," I agree, ordering a water.

Seth

Nodding, I sigh and set my drink down. I take out my sketch book and copy down the image in my head, slipping the book away once I'm done.

Riley

I catch him scetching something and I flash a smile. "Whucha sketching?"

Seth

I glance at her, slipping the book away, "Nothing. Just something I might want my blacksmith friend to look into soon. Plans."

Riley

I nod, someone walking through the doors. When I finally see their face I smile, realzing it's my mom. "Your late," I tell her.

She chuckles and shakes her head, walking over with sure enough, a whiskey in hand.

"Mom, This is Seth. Seth, This is my mom, Rayah," I introduce them.
