It was the following day, Freyja had shown Scarlett her home after their encounter in the market and subsequent bar scene which followed. They had arrived shortly before the sunset, the droid was there waiting with the supplies she had brought the other day. She had left Scarlett to do as she wished as she packed everything away. The small house was built mainly of natural wood, protected against the sea spray with a thick coat of lacquer. Freyja had helped apply the new coat herself after she purchased the building. It had a large open plan living room, with the kitchen off to one side, the wall facing the sea was floor to ceiling windows allowing an unhindered view of the crashing waves of the sea planet. The single-story building had high ceilings allowing light to reflect inside making it feel larger than its true size.
The single bedroom and bathroom were set off to the right of the main room. Freyja had offered the rooms to well travelled Jedi, taking the large sofa for her own. She had prepared a meal the evening before and it was eaten mostly in silence. Freyja was embarrassed over what had happened earlier, she did not want to bring up her tears, or the way she had acted. Her barriers had been re-built on the walk to her house, she was willing to listen to the woman, to allow her to show Freyja her true self. But she refused to fall into the pit of emotions that had swallowed her the day before.
It was early morning, the sun was just breaking the horizon, the house pointed south so she was able to gaze out across the horizon without the blinding light of the sun. She held a cup of coffee in her hand, an expensive import but something she enjoyed in the cool breeze of the early morning. She was wearing a light set of clothes, more for lounging than any active work with a thick wrap around her shoulders. As she stared out into the endless waves her mind drifted to times with her parents, long ago, in the core, on a similar looking shore.
