Gryphon hadn't been gone for long really, but two months did feel like a long time when one felt the way he had. And he wasn't feeling okay about avoiding contacting his supposed best friend, not to say that he was leaving, not while he was gone and not when he got back, which was precisely why he had sheepishly arranged this meeting with Phen. If he was upset, he'd understand. If he was worried, he'd understand even more. He couldn't imagine Phen getting angry at him for doing what he had, but it was a possibility, somewhat.
The winged man himself had changed quite a bit in those two months. The pressure had gotten to him, and while he was the same person as before, he found himself slightly more unsure of himself, a lot quieter, even if just in volume, and also rather fragile. The counselling was certainly helping, to the point where he could act like a normal person during his working hours and deal with a moderate amount of stress, but outside of those times he felt very introverted. Not like himself, really. He was hoping that it would pass with time, and it probably would, and he knew he had to give himself time, but... he wanted normality now, dangit!
He parked his car a short distance away from Phen's dad's house and walked his way to the door, taking a moment to look up at the house before knocking at the door, quickly dipping his head and looking away a little, like a guilty puppy. When the door opened, he looked up with a small grimace before giving a meek smile, "Hey," He said gently. Phen was actually a sight for sore eyes. Sore, tired eyes with bags under them.
