Just like the ocean needs the waves.

Anu looked awful. Savina hadn't really seen her since that unwelcomed joiner had been here, and it had been weeks before that as well. She had been quite concerned about her absence but hadn't had the energy to go on a full-out search. That was a pathetic excuse. It wasn't at all that she was upset with Anu, it wasn't her fault. It really wasn't anybody's fault. The Italian mother-to-be was just dealing with her own grief on the matter. There was some fear of losing Anu too. It was slim. She couldn't imagine the mother leaving behind her children, but emotions made people do strange things.
At the tears gathering in those dull blue eyes, Savina felt the sting of them in her own. At Anu's words her ears folded back against her head and she looked to the floor. "I know..." Geneva's name didn't even need to be spoken, she knew that was who the older femme meant. Stepping fully outside she lightly laid her face against Anu's. She felt that her friend needed the comfort even more than she did. "It's not your fault. I don't blame you." It needed to be said. She needed to know that.
