The silence continued, as Terrance was not particularly keen on breaking it.

Elsie slowly pulled out two granola bars. She offered one to Terrance, and stuffed the other in her mouth.

"No, thanks. I'm not really hungry."

She whispered back, looking downwards.

“I’m…”

Jenny almost told Ed that she was ok reflexively, but realized that would just be lying to him. She couldn’t do that.

”I think not everyone hates me because I’m a Hades kid. I think some of them just hate me.”

She felt so foolish. It had been wildly egotistical of her to assume that people didn’t like her only because of some unfair reason that was out of her control. And if so many people disliked her as a person, then it had to be for valid reasons.

 

He hugged her tightly. “Jen, no matter how good of a person you are, and you are a very good person, there will always be people who don’t like you. Someone is going to think that you’re acting the way you do for selfish or bad reasons, someone is going to dislike what you do to try to make them feel happier or accepted or loved. You can try your very best to do exactly what they want…” his voice broke a little, “but they can still not like you. Does that make sense?”

"So what are you doing now?"

"Processing, I guess. Today's been... A lot. I'm having a hard time keeping myself together, you know?"

"I doubt I'm a very good person for that either."

She shrugged. "Sitting with someone else will help keep me from spiraling."

Terrance considered moving away from her.

She's not going to wake up until someone wakes her up, or until it's been a few hours.

Elsie continued to sleep.
