(Oh, Venus.

Neptune catches herself before she reaches out to thumb her tears away, busies herself with her phone instead. She feels like she wants to cry too. She's filled to the brim, too easy to spill. She takes a deep, slow breath until the water settles.)


Listen. You don't have to be so sorry all of the time, Venus.
If you wanted to hug me and I wanted to be hugged, nobody has to be sorry for anything.
