Whatever lies or she told him, she didn’t know any better. To her, they were facts. She had gotten one out of three correct—but did it really matter when they had been truths to her forever?

Maybe to him.

He showed no amusement, so her smile waned as she grabbed the pin. She was still unsure how she was supposed to act.

His response caught her off guard and she gave a hiccup of laughter before she began rolling out the dough.

She had nothing more to say about herself.

the divide between personal, and professional, felt like an infinite chasm to the man. his son, his own flesh and blood, felt like a stranger. the steps he took to propel his family forward were lonely ones.

“I have an apartment near Upper Slateport.”

Truth. 4217 Moon Stone Ave., apt. 3. It was pretty nice, too.

“I live by myself.”

She began rolling out the dough, pressing palms into the ends of the pin and putting much more effort into than he had—because he hadn’t needed to.

“I like it.”

Did she?

in a scenario like this, he'd likely be expected to help. but gabriel believes that one must pave their own path; in business, and in pizza baking.

he's patient in mixing the sauce; turning a cold coagulative mess into something more fluid and appetizing. idle hands, idle mind.

That was… maybe something to consider?

She looked up, still rolling out the dough with a light grunt.

“That’s a really nice offer. Why?”

Surely he had plenty of other uses for it—even other people who worked for him, maybe. How many people worked for Black? She had no idea.

was it a nice offer? gabriel blinked, hands never idle.
[break][break]
"i have plenty of room, and you do good work on my behalf. the facilities of my home will be made available to you, as well."
[break][break]
money wasn't an issue, neither was space. had he overstepped in some way?
[break][break]
moving the container out of the way, satisfied with the mix, he begins to slowly form the crust of the pizza.

Did he want her to stay there? She noted the will, rather than would, as though it were already agreed upon.

She was fine living in her apartment. It bordered on luxurious, both in location and interior. Good money came for the sacrifice of genuine companionship. Swimming in cash, all alone—but she’d been raised to thrive in such emptiness.

He meant to take her under his wing, now, twice over. Independence had been a new concept only a few years ago, with the disappearance of her father. It had never been taught. It was uncomfortable.

When Gabriel Black had entered her life, it had been a very short time until she’d felt utterly dependent on him. There was no hope of leaving such a lifestyle, only because it had not occurred to her at all.

She latched on further.

“Okay. Yeah. Thanks, Gabe.”

his nod is nigh the only indication he'd heard her, as he delves deeper into the mindless action of making the pizza from scratch. in some ways, nina's small, delicate fingers had an advantage in areas like this. though, he couldn't deny the gorilla grip helped in the beginning.
[break][break]
"i understand the importance of privacy, so feel free to keep your other place, or move between them how you like."
[break][break]
satisfied, he returns the previously stirred pan to a position nearby.
[break][break]
"i've hired a new assistant, . reach out to her with any issues, should you be unable to contact myself."
[break][break]

the ladle is lifted, and sauce drips from it in troughs.
[break][break]
"is there anything you require to may your stay more comfortable?"
