[ Winona Walter ]

[Winnie Walter @ACTRESSWALTER]

You sure?

[ᅠᅠ﹑ ᅠALEX ᅠ.ᅠ @KEPTSECOND]

... I’m sorry. It’s okay. I’ll manage somehow.

[Winnie Walter @ACTRESSWALTER]

Right... well...um.. Alex. I've never been good at these, especially with you.. but i understand that

[ᅠᅠ﹑ ᅠALEX ᅠ.ᅠ @KEPTSECOND]

That’s true. I changed a lot and not in a good way.

I mean… Will always told me I should just be Alex, but I don’t know how to do that anymore. Otherwise, I just want to run away every time or hide somewhere and disappear.

[Winnie Walter @ACTRESSWALTER]

I mean, you're growing up, finding your way, Alex. All of us do that.

[ᅠᅠ﹑ ᅠALEX ᅠ.ᅠ @KEPTSECOND]

Is it that bad?

[Winnie Walter @ACTRESSWALTER]

I see, at least you're understanding that.

[ᅠᅠ﹑ ᅠALEX ᅠ.ᅠ @KEPTSECOND]

I’m trying to understand it, but everything feels different now. Maybe I’m not coping as well as I thought.

[Winnie Walter @ACTRESSWALTER]

I can see that and its understandable. I was only pointing out that I doubt it was really your fault

[ᅠᅠ﹑ ᅠALEX ᅠ.ᅠ @KEPTSECOND]

I’m sorry. I don’t know, I’m just not really myself right now.

[Winnie Walter @ACTRESSWALTER]

I am not sugar coating anything, Alex. You two may put strain but they love you more than anything.

[ᅠᅠ﹑ ᅠALEX ᅠ.ᅠ @KEPTSECOND]

But it’s weighing on our parents… You can’t sugarcoat this.

[Winnie Walter @ACTRESSWALTER]

You shouldn't blame yourself or Cole...

[ᅠᅠ﹑ ᅠALEX ᅠ.ᅠ @KEPTSECOND]

I think if I didn’t fight with Cole so much, things would probably be better. At least a little.

[Winnie Walter @ACTRESSWALTER]

We probably should do more. I don't think any of us have been doing the amount we should have been

[ᅠᅠ﹑ ᅠALEX ᅠ.ᅠ @KEPTSECOND]

I keep wondering if we should’ve done more to help.

[Winnie Walter @ACTRESSWALTER]

Youre not the only one who's worried.

[ᅠᅠ﹑ ᅠALEX ᅠ.ᅠ @KEPTSECOND]

I know, Winnie... I guess Dad could really use some help. He’s been pretty absent lately. I’m kind of worried, honestly.

[Winnie Walter @ACTRESSWALTER]

"That's fair. I will be here as much as I can. I am only a call and car ride away, I will speed to you if I need to...you do know that right?"

[ᅠᅠ﹑ ᅠALEX ᅠ.ᅠ @KEPTSECOND]

If it’s good for you, then… yeah. That’s what matters. You know… I just… I kinda need you here.

[Winnie Walter @ACTRESSWALTER]

"I mean I'll do my job, and hopefully I can at least help on the ranch when I can!"

[ᅠᅠ﹑ ᅠALEX ᅠ.ᅠ @KEPTSECOND]

“I guess sometimes a while is what it takes.” He adds, offering a faint, genuine nod.

His gaze lingers, warm but restrained. “I’m glad you think it’ll be worth it.”

[Winnie Walter @ACTRESSWALTER]

Winnie nodded with a little smile on his face.
"Yeah... It's going to be a while..but i think it will be good, hopefully.."

[ᅠᅠ﹑ ᅠALEX ᅠ.ᅠ @KEPTSECOND]

“Oh.”

The word comes out softer than he expects. He nods again, slower this time, like he’s adjusting to the weight of it.

“I just… I didn’t realize it’d be that much. Or that soon.”

[Winnie Walter @ACTRESSWALTER]

Winnie sighed.

"It's just i might have to work longer hours outside of town, and might not see everyone for a while.:

[ᅠᅠ﹑ ᅠALEX ᅠ.ᅠ @KEPTSECOND]

He nods slowly, accepting the answer even if it doesn’t fully settle him.

There’s a brief pause, his gaze dropping before lifting back to her.

“Okay...” He says quietly. “I won’t push.”

[Winnie Walter @ACTRESSWALTER]

"Just a lot going on in and around my life currently is all, nothing for you to worry about though" winnie said, honestly

[ᅠᅠ﹑ ᅠALEX ᅠ.ᅠ @KEPTSECOND]

He lingers for a second, like he’s deciding whether to believe her or not. It’s been a while since he last saw her, and that distance sits heavy between them.

“Just… figured I’d check. You kinda looked like you were somewhere else.”

[Winnie Walter @ACTRESSWALTER]

"Hm?" She then clicked back into reality.

"Yeah... yeah im fine"

[ᅠᅠ﹑ ᅠALEX ᅠ.ᅠ @KEPTSECOND]

@ACTRESSWALTER

“Hey.” He says quietly, eyes flicking over her face like he’s checking she’s really there.

“…You okay?”
