Redhawk Caldera Take your fears and let them go

<3

by the time that bridget finished, teya was crying silent tears of anger and hurt. the red-masque was right, of course; about all of it. about the miscommunication and the unwillingness to try, about the — about it all.
"maybe i never able to do any of that, bridget." perhaps very fundamentally she would have never been what the other wanted. and while teya wanted to be defiant, there was nothing left of that in her.
bridget hadn't gotten pregnant against her will. bridget hadn't supported an entire pregnancy alone in her relationship or listened to the father of her child tell her he didn't want to be that. 
but she had been abandoned — by teya.
i'm sorry i'm sorry i'm sorry —
she had nothing left to offer.
"i know you not want to be affair!" her voice hitched. "or f-fallback. that why i never speak it again."
she had moved to bronco. she had never come back thinking it too cruel.
"don't say it." tears flowed down her face. her lips trembled. she fought not to sob in front of bridget.
"sorry." her voice melted to nothing. she looked away.
