Watching, Waiting, Commiserating

She couldn't be sure how everyone else felt, she wasn't a mind reader. But she was just a little happy when Cinaed had agreed to getting tired of the pines. She was maybe even a little scared to share that feeling with anyone else, well, because she spent most of her time with her family and she didn't want to let them down. So even though it may not have seemed much like it, she was opening up to Cina if only a little, and content with feeling mutual.

Her maybe not so happy face became more noticeable as her expression went downward as he spoke. The more time she spent with the red kids, she couldn't deny maybe how bad she felt for them. She had her entire family, where it seemed like the red kids were drifting apart from even each other. Maybe it was the fault of their father, she could never know. And she wouldn't truly understand how Cina felt, because her own parents and siblings were so close to each other.

"I won't blame you." It wasn't encouraging him, but she was at least letting him know she understood where the feeling came from. "But won't lie, I'd miss beating you up when I got the chance." She did offer a sarcastic smile as she went along the wall. At least if he felt like he didn't belong because of his father, she hoped she could make him feel like he belonged her because of her, or maybe even one of her other siblings. Maybe one of his, she didn't know.
