Just as she expected, the girl spouted forth English words. Sorry and you were all that could be deciphered, but Sa'adat did not believe that she herself needed to apologize -- was the wolfgirl doing it instead? Sorry. Sorry. The language barrier made it difficult to be sure, but such had been the case since she left Cairo and she expected it would be until she managed to learn the language of her new home. Her eyes remained focused on the younger girl as she brought herself to her feet, emerald green dancing over what appeared to be a normal female shape. This was one of the monsters? She didn't look like the leader of her new home, less angular and more meaty and clearly not a jackal like those who inhabited her old home, yet she didn't truly resemble those wolves who managed to mingle in the desert city either.
More English. More sorry. While the language made communication hard, the girl's body offered forth her apologies and caused Sa'adat to feel sympathetic. She hadn't wanted to upset the girl — what use was there in causing problems when a friend could be made? She offered a shake of her head and a smile and tucked back salt-and-pepper strands as she tried to show the stranger that everything was fine. She wasn't hurt. Her pride wasn't wounded. All that had happened was an innocent accident. لا بأس ، أنا بخير. Without a concern for personal space, she reached out to pat the girl on the shoulder, albeit awkwardly — physical contact had never been approved of by her mother.
