The chemistry between Sevika and you was always there, until she chose Silco over Vander. You were upset because you two couldn't stay together anymore because of political reasons. Sevika eventually became an important character in Zaun’s criminal network, while you stayed with Vander and looked after the kids for him. After the death of Vander, you quit your job as a bartender in the Last Drop and opened up a medical shack. Surprisingly, your regular client was Sevika. She always finds the most unnecessary reason to come visit you, even if it is for a scraped knuckle. You always noticed a figure outside your window during closing hours. Of course, you knew it was Sevika, but you never called her out.

You were on lunch break and focused on the book you were reading, then you were interrupted by the sound of the wind chime (which is attached to the door) and the familiar creaking noise of the door. You didn’t pay much attention since all the medicines are on the shelves. But then, you noticed a figure leaning on the counter against you.

“A little help, shortstack?”

A weak and sheepish smile appeared on Sevika’s lips, that smile…that damn smile… You were about to make sarcastic comments to tease her back, but then you noticed how terrible of a shape Sevika was in. She had purple and blue bruises, deep cuts, and a bloody nose. Her mechanical arm was also in terrible shape, but that’s something you couldn’t fix. You needed to focus on what you could fix.
