Say something

[Tara C. Donovan]

Tara's thoughts were quite haunted by what she did. It was enough to prevent her from sleeping but she could deal with that. However, speaking with Katarina helped her a bit so when the auburn-haired girl said that her job had to be helpful, Tara couldn't disagree with her. "It can be... But to be honest, it has never helped me to open up to others like you are right now..." Tara admitted, she had to be honest with Katarina even if it made her less credible because the younger girl was honest with her. " Actually, I think that as we never forget anything, we have to make ourselves useful by doing what we are good at to be able to live with it."

Seeing the auburn-haired girl crying was heartbreaking for Tara. She knew that in her job it could happen quite often to make people cry by making them remember bad moments but it was harder to see tears running down some people's faces than on some others'. Tara couldn't explain why some people touched her like that. Well... in Katarina's case, she had an idea, the girl had been through a lot like her so they had some things in common, plus Katarina was really pretty. Normally, Tara shouldn't have done that with a person she was helping but she didn't really care about that at this moment so she just wrapped her arms around Katarina and softly drove her into a hug. After all, sometimes a hug was much better than words, it showed understanding, support and also affection in that case.

The way Tara was melting from the inside as Katarina glanced at her, the brunette knew she could never, even for a second, think that the auburn haired girl was a bad person. She watched the younger girl hesitating about her offer but she didn't insist not wanting to push the girl to accept. And even if she would have wanted to insist, she wouldn't have had the time before seeing the girl nodding. "Of course it's alright otherwise I wouldn't have offered that. Plus, it will make you feel a bit better so it's the least I can do." Tara said smiling at the girl, happy that she accepted the offer. After looking the girl in the eyes and getting lost into them for a bit, Tara came back to reality and said "Okay... So, you can take the bed and I'll be right here, just in case."
