Hideaway Strath But not yet, cuz it's only begun

Arlette didn't expect the embrace but was quick to just and lean into it. She smiled softly at Nyra. It seemed she had not really worked on her trauma yet. She liked the back of her neck for comfort. "I would be honored to have such a badass sister as you," she spoke, but it also made her think of her own sister, Keen. Derg had known her, and she wondered how she was doing. Merrit also. Luckily she had a new family here, not by blood, and perhaps even a little better.

"If you ever need to talk about what happened, or the pregnancy, please do so. Maybe it will help with the pain. It did for me," she murmured, staying into the embrace.
