Lion Head Mesa sins and scars you'll never recognize

Sayf was immediately intrigued. He was sure to hide the interest, though, since something about her past seemed to be upsetting her now. 

Sometimes talking about it can help how you feel about it now, he told her. And I am a good listener. He offered her a soft smile.

Still, he was interested to know more about her past. Not that he had ever considered doing the same, but he had never heard of such a thing before.
