Elyse wondered why she already felt so comfortable around Ana. Elyse already felt like she could tell the other woman anything. The truth was Elyse was still scared even if she didn't show it. She didn't want to go out alone. Maybe it was because she was no longer alone and she liked being around people. Maybe it was because those who were once her allies would now be hunting her too.
Elyse looked down at her food trying to decide what to say. She trusted Nox, but she didn't want to burden him with her fears. He had so much on his mind right now - and he was still scared of what they had. The last thing Elyse wanted to do was push him away.
"Can I talk to you about something?"
Elyse finally said.
"Of course, darling,"
Elyse looked up. "It's just - two days ago I was hiding - from everyone. I was so alone. I avoided getting too close to people because - well I didn't want them to find out. The Atharim. And now - I feel different. Like I don't have to hide, but I still have to hide because they are looking for me - well they will be eventually."
she sighed. "it probably doesn't make sense at all, but I feel confused...and...I miss my parents. You see...I can't talk to them anymore. Because I have no idea what they would do."
A few tears dropped as she spoke her fears to Ana. She was a daughter who was afraid to talk to her parents. "I'm sorry. I hope I don't seem ungrateful. To be honest the past few days have been some of the best that I remember. But I worry."
Elyse found herself feeling relieved just to say all of that. Maybe she just needed to let it all out. "I feel better now. Thanks for listening. I needed to say that."
