Choices.

Her eyebrows flicker into and out of a frown as she thinks back.

How had she never noticed? She's never shy of an opinion, so she just never thought about why he might ask for hers and follow it without question?

Her mind whirling, she settles carefully onto the ground, one leg curled and the other propped over it so she can lean on her knee and study him. "Okay," she says, simply, and waits.

Nothing about this is easy. And it's been so much worse for him. The least she can do is listen.
