Apologies
Lena sat in her office crying. She had 12 missed calls from Kara and 23 texts, all unread and unopened. It was Friday night, her date with Kara was today but both women knew it was pretty much canceled. Someone knocked on her office doors. She wiped away her tears and put on her expressionless facade. There were absolutely no signs that she had been crying and she knew it. She had the Luthors to thank for that little trick.
“Come in” She ordered.
Jess stepped into her office and quickly let her know that Kara had dropped by.
…
Kara looked up at the L-Corp building before taking a deep breath. She nervously walked over to the front desk and was met with Jess the secretary who looked at her with accusing eyes.
“Hi, um.. I’m here to see Lena”
“You are not on the list Miss Danvers” she replied coldly. Kara looked confused as she tilted her head.
“But- I- Lena said I was to be let in whenever possible. Is she in a meeting or something?” The reporter asked, messing with her hands.
“No, but Miss Luthor has revoked your access to her office.”
Kara huffed a bit before walking out of the building, shaking her head. If Kara Danvers wasn’t allowed to see Lena, Supergirl would.
…
Lena heard the familiar rustle of fabric from behind her. ‘Supergirl’ she thought before turning slowly in her chair to face the heroine.
“Supergirl, what can I do for you? Here to tell me that another one of my family members has gone off the edge? Because last time I checked, they’re all either dead or in chains”
Supergirl looked surprised, but her surprise was replaced with sadness.
“Miss Luthor, all you alright?” she asked stepping towards Lena, hands on her hips.
“I’m fine Supergirl, no need to worry about me. Don’t you have a city to save?” Lena said with slight disdain.
“Well, if you don’t want to talk about it, I’ll be on my way. Goodbye Miss Luthor” Kara looked back at the CEO, expression still, as she took off into the night sky. As she flew home, she heard the muffled sobs of a certain brunette.
