Jackie smiled at Yasmine. "It's okay. I forgive you for whatever you did in the past." She looked across from where they were and smiled. "I don't think you'll hurt me. You seem to be very kind. It would be nice to get to know you again. Maybe that might trigger something."
"Even if it might…I'm just scared of hurting you again…" Yasmine admitted. "I mean…how the events happened… I could've told you not to leave until after the party since we weren't going anywhere during it, or I could've just talked to you for a couple more minutes, but I let you leave. I still hate whoever caused the accident…but it's not like I couldn't have stopped you from leaving…"
Jackie sighed as she grabbed a rock that was beside her and threw it out. "Maybe not, but honestly, I think we should leave all of this in the past. I don't want you to keep saying that it's all your fault when it isn't. And I trust you, even though I don't know you, that you won't hurt me."
(I'm surprised you remembered this existed without saying, "Hey, I can't continue this anymore." I…might have a lot of dead role plays, some due to schedules and some being for unknown reasons.)
"I'm not convinced that I didn't have some part in it. For one, I could've just had you stay at my house, or as I've said before, had you leave later. Even when it wasn't directly my fault, which I know, I still had a role in it happening. Even just a couple more seconds and you would've been fine…"
(I'm sorry. I should have sent something earlier. I've just been terribly busy with school and school work. And some writing projects.)
"Yasmine…" She groaned. "Can we just drop this, please? Or can we come back to this later?" She sighed and looked at Yasmine. "You didn't have the intention to hurt me, so it's not exactly your fault. And this is not up for debate. And that's final." She paused, looking for a subject they could talk about. "Got any…i dunno, hobbies, or favorite animals?
(I've become close to inactive with the lack of things to do, so it's fine, really! Aside from a sleepover, the inactivity was because of a lack of things to do.)
"Hobbies…?" She definitely found that a random subject, though she knew what prompted the change. "Um…I'm into things like art and trying to help people or animals. Kinda hard with people when you're not that social, but I try my best. I just try to ensure that everyone, whether a person or animal, is happy. That's been proven difficult, but I try."
"That's really nice of you of wanting to help and animals. Especially trying to help animals, because…animals…they're not treated right. And that's just unfair," She said with a huff. Her eyes widened when Yasmine mentioned art. "You do art? That's awesome! You think you can teach me?"
"I've never really given an art tutorial before… It's not like I'm incredibly good at it or anything like that…" Yasmine said. "I don't even draw much anymore since I'm always focusing on other things. There's a lot that I want to do, whether it's helping someone or working on another hobby of mine."
"Please, Yasmine?" Jacqueline pleaded. "I promise to not be too much trouble. And even if you're good or not, I would really appreciate whatever you can teach me." She sighed, pouted, and gave Yasmine the puppy dog eyes, hoping that would be able to convince her.
"I never said that I wouldn't. I'm just unsure of how to put this together and make a decent art tutorial. Aside from that, I don't exactly have my sketchbook with me, but with all the recent events, I'm not sure why I'd even be carrying something like that around," Yasmine said.
"Oh." Jaqueline said. "Well, sometimes sketching something or even just doodling…because it's an outlet for stress. Why do you think many people are always doodling? Because it relieves stress." She paused and smiled. "You can show me some other time, then. I'm not going to push you."
"It's not like I said it isn't. Heck, I might've brought it if it wasn't for all of the stuff we made together in it, not to mention the stuff I was making for you. At that point, it was just kind of a reminder of what I could've lost, something I ended up losing, that being the you I've made all those drawings and other memories with."
"But we can create some new memories, right?" She asked. "And maybe, something can trigger my old memories back. Not that all of it is going to be easy, but it's worth a shot, I guess." She sighed and stood up. "Wanna head back? Or we can just go somewhere else," She said as she extended her hand.
"It's not just that. Aside from missing the you I once had, I guess I'm just scared of you changing drastically. It can happen in events like these. You've been one of my only friends the entire time I've been here, and I don't wanna lose you. Physically, I didn't, but that doesn't mean you're not gone." Yasmine sighed. "Before you say I'm being too pessimistic, it's just hard dealing with this…but I can't tell you why." She wasn't going to admit that she had developed feelings for her friend when she was like this.
She looked at her confused. Well, she knew that with her memories gone, she and the people who cared and loved her were going to have a hard time. That was something the Doctor had said. She shrugged a bit. "Well, that…i understand. You're scared and so am I." She sighed and smiled sadly at her. She shivered and put her hands into the pockets of the jacket she was wearing. "It's getting cold. Is it always like that?" She asked as she turned her head to look at Yasmine.
"Given the time of year, yes, it tends to get cold around here at this time. It's nothing unusual," Yasmine replied. "Back to our other conversation, I understand. You're in an unfamiliar place with people you don't know. Despite knowing your family for years and living here for years as well, it's nothing more than an unfamiliar place to you. I can see why you're scared. For me, it's just being worried that I'm gonna lose you. You are my best friend, and one of my only. Losing you would crush me… That's why I've overreacted so much recently."
(Hey, so….I might or might have not forgotten about this. Do you want to continue? I understand if you don't. I kinda left you hanging for a good three months or so)
(It's all up to you. I don't mind if you drop this due to being busy, really. It's quite normal for everyone who I rp with to be busy and stop replying. It's perfectly fine if you stop, too. I don't want you stressing yourself out or anything)
