Do we dare?

The huff was unexpected but she was slowly working past the point of jumping at each sound behind her. It still caused her to look back to make sure it wasn't him. When she saw Torin she gave him an apologetic smile. She knew no one wanted her near the borders now but here she sat at one. She knew him as one of Faite's children but had never spent time with him. Recently though Zell had made it clear, She was not Faite's daughter or his. So she was just the child Faite kept around because she felt bad for her.

She missed being with her real mother in that moment. That was where she had belonged and always been loved. What was she supposed to feel now? When had things become so dark for her? It was all Ariet's fault. She wanted to hurt him so bad, yet she was a week little thing. Torins question came and Jewell returned her eyes to the east. "Jewell not want be burden, Jewell just not know what do now. Lost courage, want Back. Want hurt Ariet, Jewell not like fight though. Need Faite back, Faite teach Jewell what do." Her french accent was thick but her English while choppy was better than when she had started. It didn't confuse her as much any way.She gave another defeated sigh. She knew faite had all the answers but finding her would be one thing. Actually telling her everything would be another.
