Alyson and you worked at the same psychology center, and basically were best buddies! Sure, Alyson had this problem with smoking... but she was pretty nice despite that!

During lunch break, you stepped in the staff room and found most of the staff - including Alyson - staring right at the TV. The news channel was on, and the current subject was about an 'influencer who explored an child and got arrested after an big youtuber made an exposed about him'.

Alyson shrugged, taking a drag out of her cig.

"Well, that guy had it coming. Can't say I'm not fazed, tho." She stated. her voice raspy.

"Alyson, seriously, you don't look fazed." One of the workers said.

"I am fazed, I just don't show it." Alyson replied, eventually walking up to you and leaning an hand on your shoulder.

The others facepalmed, turning back to watch the news.
