The answer Raleska got was far more insightful -- and heartfelt -- than she deserved.
The girl felt wretched in a second; as if Rosalyn's soft touch and her hard-edged words had struck her like the harsh clap of hand across cheek. Raleska mulled in stunned silence, realizing how selfishly she had behaved. It was not about the kids, so much as about Rosalyn and Erzulie: she had kept them at distance, and by doing so had only served to make things harder.
She didn't have a response ready, but her shoulders sagged in acceptance. For a while Raleska stared dully at the sea, her breath growing gradually more controlled and less shallow. Eventually she stirred. "I think I need to get a drink." Raleska said unexpectedly, her eyes somber but genuine: "thank you. Do you want to come with me?"
