Ashley and Primo stood on the side of the road, staring at the car's rear in silence. After a moment, Primo tugged at her hand to get her attention.
"Hmm?" Looking down, she caught Primo's inquiry.
[Should I keep my distance from Elliot?]
She blinked and stared at Primo, smiling as she bent down. Ashley rested a hand on her knee, her other hand stroking his hair.
"Why would you do that?" she hummed. "Elliot is a great friend, isn't he?"
Primo shrugged.
"Primo, not all cops are bad," she said. "Well, Dominion has a complicated relationship with them, but don't worry about it."
She kept her advice short and simple, since she didn't know what to say or do in this situation. She didn't even think she believed what she said, but her lack of hope for the justice system was something she didn't want to pass on to Primo.
