Just Smoke My Cigarette And Hush

Aranea would hear Torin, hear his suffering through his voice. And yet, she was selfish. She understood the hardship he was feeling and she knew it wasn't easy what he was going through. But she felt like she had suffered much longer. Not that she blamed anyone but herself.

She'd wait a moment in silence as if to pay respects but that wasn't her intention at all. She wanted to speak about what happened to her as much as she didn't want to. She held it in from everyone for so long. The only one who knew of the betrayal was Tyranis himself regardless of those he told.

"I- Torin, I-" she broke through tears and hesitation. "I had children nearly five years ago." She paused for a few more seconds, it was so hard for her to get the rest out. If Torin recalled her age it would have come to a surprise to him as she had a teen pregnancy. He may have been able to line up the times they originally met in the timeline and either way it was shortly after their mostly meaningless kiss. "They were taken from me." All to which was true to her, but in reality Nuada's abandonment was her own fault, not to what she remembered. "Their father, he-" She couldn't say anymore, even if it was the ongoing silence that followed. She couldn't even refer to Tyranis as her mate, her lover, or anything worthy of the name. A father even, that wasn't how she would describe him. He left Nuada and took Rain, how could a father make a choice like that even if he had the interest of Aranea herself.

She couldn't bring herself to look at him. The embarrassment and the shame she didn't want to express to anyone. Shame for even ignoring Torin's problems in selfishness to her own.
