Hi! I'm Yara's girlfriend: you might not know me, but I've been told you have a great eye for flowers, so, uh, is there any bouquet you'd recommend for my beloved? If you'd want, we can go out shopping or picking flowers together!

Lene stares at the ask for a long time. A very, very long time. The longer she stares, the more anxiety bubbles inside her chest. And anger. A lot of anger.

She wanted to be blunt. To say, “No, I’d never want to go shopping with you. Or pick flowers. In fact, I think you should stay far away from me. And Yara. I don’t trust you, or your Temple, or you being around her. How can someone be so cruel, only to turn it around after she comes crawling back? As if she needed to in the first place. That’s not nice at all.”

But that would be rude. And this was for Yara, so…

…sure. that would be fun…let me know when…

Isn’t it infuriating when you give people more than they could ever dream of, and they turn around and humiliate you? Some people need to learn the value of respect and a positive reputation.

I don't know. If I went to the nearest mosque and asked for information about the people who worship there, they wouldn't give me that information. Even if I was a member, they probably wouldn't just hand over information about other members. Is that a religious organization keeping secrets? I wouldn't be able to freely explore the Vatican. Is that a religious organization keeping secrets? There are secrets that are bad like not sharing the rules, hidden membership fees, or abuse, but those aren't unique to religions or religious organizations. It sounds like there's some shady stuff at temple that you and Yara have mention, but maybe that's the work of bad apples who would have found a way to hurt people without the temple.

Lene starts to read the ask. The longer she goes through, the tighter her chest feels. It rumbles in her stomach, traveling up her throat and locking it in place.

Her mind started to wander as she read. Maybe…maybe she didn’t know better. If there were other people who knew more than her…maybe she should stop. It made sense that they would have secrets…maybe it wasn’t a big deal-

“…but maybe that's the work of bad apples who would have found a way to hurt people without the temple.”

Suddenly, Lene stops.

She stares at the last sentence quietly. The ticking of her alarm clock is hard to ignore. The dimly lit screen highlights her dark brown eyes.

The tightness in her chest comes to a dull lull. Instead, a small spark ignites in her stomach. It warms up her skin and lights her chest, a fire traveling throughout her body.

She grits her teeth lightly as she starts typing, not even thinking for a second.

But…that’s the problem…why would there be bad apples in the first place, if it’s supposed to be good…? why would…people keep their secrets, if they had nothing to hide? Shouldn’t the people in charge know better? Shouldnt they…shouldn’t they be doing anything to protect people?

This…this isn’t just about learning information…it’s about keeping people safe….i don’t care about what’s a secret and what’s not…i care about the people that are getting hurt.

Maybe…maybe if the Temple did a better job at stopping it…i wouldn’t care about them at all…
