"Means he still pities me," she said bitterly. "There's a difference." She ran her fingers through her hair and made a face; she could really use a shower. And a hot meal.

"Right," muttered Sammie, finishing off her beer. What the hell was she going to do for tonight? It was that time in her life again when living on the streets suddenly became an option.

Riddle looked at her like she was reading her mind. "You got a place to stay?" God, she was so sick of alleys. More and more, she was wondering about Gypsy--where she'd ended up, how she felt about Riddle these days, and whether she was in any position to take in strays.

((Aw, Gypsy'll totally come to the rescue! She's been feeling a bit sentimental these days ;P))

"I wish," muttered Sammie darkly. "Do you?"

((Aww, even toward Sammie? That's an impressive grudge to forgive!))
"Do I look like a got a place to stay?" she muttered, getting up slowly, swaying on her feet a bit. She eyed Sammie thoughtfully. "You got any idea what happened to Gypsy? Last I heard, your boss got his hands on her."

"Yeah, uh... last I heard of her was when I was showing her her room," said Sammie bashfully. "She said she was pregnant." And it was right after I handed her to two of Eastman's men.

((Jimmy told her he loved her. She's still riding on that wave. But don't worry. It won't come easy  )) |

"You gotta be kidding me." Riddle raised an eyebrow. She could easily see Gypsy lying about such a thing in an attempt to save herself from Eastman's men, and who could blame her? Then again, it might be true. Not that it mattered either way; they'd never care. "Well, she's prob'ly a whore or a corpse by now."

It was then that she remembered. That whole day was such a blur that she hadn't had time to really digest what happened. "Actually, uh, she got out of Eastman's place... people were everywhere during the raid and those newsies took her and let her go," explained Sammie.

"Yeah?" Riddle perked up. Her chance at a roof and a bite to eat might not be lost after all. "Well, I'm gonna ask around, see if I can find her. We was kinda friends...well, more like I was the brains and she was the brawn, and I never even liked her much, but beggars can't be choosers."

"Well, good luck with that," said Sammie, quite sure that Gypsy or the newsies didn't want to see her at all. She did shoot at them with a gun and feed Gypsy to the wolves.

"Aww, not gonna tag along?" she said with a bit of an evil laugh. It was Sammie's own fault these people hated her, after all. "Maybe you oughta go back and visit your knight in shining armor. Thank him for not torturing you and all." It was like she couldn't help herself; it was her destiny to taunt any other girl developing not-so-subtle feelings for her ex-boyfriend. Not subtle to Riddle's keen perception, anyway.

Sammie simply glared at her. She wasn't about to join her unless she was invited. And with Gypsy there, she knew well enough that she wouldn't be welcomed. If she could only find a room in Irving Hall somewhere...
