Aiuti! Aiuti!

Starling's blue eyes would snap to Sparrow as she contradicted what he said, wide and disbelieving. How...could she say so? He was the one that had treated her but...he just stared, his mouth open in disbelief. But he stayed silent, just watching his sister as he stood on the sidelines. His heart was racing, and he continued to feel worse and worse. Aunt Harmony appeared, and assessed Finch, but he remained where he was. When she asked what was used to treat her, he moved to speak again but Sparrow got in first. He stared at his sister for a moment before slowly closing his mouth again, feeling his brows furrow and his throat tighten. Okay...

But then she continued, saying that Finch should be in a den near Harmony, and that was when he felt his heart break. Instantly he felt like she didn't believe in his ability to care for their little sister, and she certainly seemed to be the leader of this little meeting. He shifted his gaze to look at Bass, blue wide and hurt...but he couldn't make this about him. It wasn't about him. So he choked back the pain, the tears that continued to threaten his eyes. "Hai ragione Sparrow... che farà molto meglio con la zia Harmony " He whispered in his broken hearted voice. He often thought he wasn't good enough, that he would never compare to his Aunt...but this felt like it just validated his anxieties. "Ho intenzione di andare resto..." He whispered, quickly turning away so no one could see his hurt as he peeled himself from Lillianna. And without a word, he walked away.
