( if her eyes weren't already watery to begin with, now he could clearly hear her choke up. henry had always been so mysterious from the day she met him, and frankly it was difficult to determine what his thoughts were and what he was feeling. he came across as very distant, walking in a dream of his own to his own beat.
truthfully she didn't realize he had been struggling with everything going on in his world and while the missing door in his apartment was a painful indicator of something happening to him, she didn't want to pry.
to know she had helped him just by listening to him....well that made her feel like she couldn't kill claudia. she didn't want to disappoint or let down someone she just saved after all. )
I didn't know I did that for you....Henry. Damn it, you should tell me these things. Okay new rule, we tell each other everything or I...I—
I'll give you a knuckle sandwich you won't forget!
Tell each other everything? He supposes that wouldn't be too hard. He's a little surprised she didn't realize how much he came to owe her for her help. It seems not emoting or expressing himself verbally has caused some misunderstanding. But he's happy that he is able to clear it up.
He tries to laugh - it comes out like small heavy breathing sighs. ]
( in turn, his own stifled little laugh is met by one of her own as she felt some of the stress of everything wash off her. it helped they came from the same world and could relate to a lot of things and fears. while they still had plenty more to share and talk about, she was glad he turned out to be a good person.
that's what she needed, someone like henry to look after her when so many had failed alessa in the past. )
But not for long, I gotta go. Talk to you when we return to Etraya okay?
