There’s some relief in the fact that Malik doesn’t argue with her, he doesn’t deny anything that she’s saying. He accepts the fact that she’s his sister - but that’s it. All the emotion in this reunion appears to be contained inside of her, the eyes that match his are still bright with tears but her confusion keeps them from falling.
Should she just be grateful that he is not chasing her away?
What is she supposed to do now?
Sickle releases a snort of disbelief when he mentions that their mother is more laid back than she had been before. She isn’t sure she’s curious enough to ask just what that means. It would not take much to be a step down from the frightening vision that she had seen, more a beast than a mare who’s claws had pierced her iridescent sides when she had carried Sickle from the Pampas.
“It doesn’t matter.” She mutters, unsure of how to navigate this path the conversation has led them. “She’s not really my mom. Not in the way that matters.”
There's a small pause and she refocuses her attention on who is in front of her, rather than the parents she wishes weren't related to her by blood. With the shift, her voice becomes small again. “Did they hurt you at all? Have you... have you been okay?”
