[ It was really strange to see Lailah cry. That was for sure. For as long as he knew the young woman, she was always so headstrong and indifferent. When things didn't go her way or things she didn't want to talk about happened, she'd divert the topic. Right now, though. She was not. ]

[ He offered her a tissue he kept on himself for other occasions. as she was wiping her eyes with her sleeve. ]

Old Lady? Well I wouldn't call you that and hey if you got something to say, I'd rather you say it. Keeping that stuff in isn't good for your heath.

[ He chuckled. ]
