This is usually the moment that Aoife gives up and backs down for the peace of the family. It's always her that is the weakest one of the siblings, scraping to make sure that everyone's okay and fine with what Aoife does and feels. It's always her following the smarter, funnier, more social Amelie but not this time, not now. Not with this issue.
"Oh, yes, of course, please don't let him wait on my behalf. You need to put the people that matter first." It hurts like shards of ice pushing into her body, but ice will melt and Aoife will be able to pass through this moment. What would she be doing without anyway? The silly smilie-dialogues through their phones? It's not like she's still the sum of what Amelie isn't.
She purses her lips. "Must be such an adventure, getting a tour through a big, fancy house, so unlike the one you grew up in. Enjoy."
