Oric stepped forward, pulling the sobbing Willow into his arms. He was fully aware that she was not crying for him, and his best guess was that Jeremy Barnes had told her that he was expecting. When she composed herself and pushed him away, Oric backed up, wanting to give her time before questioning her declaration of hatred.
"What do you mean I sent my friends?" Willow did not hear Oric's question, she was too exhausted to even pretend anymore. She was hurt in many ways, and she blamed Oric.
Willow just wanted to push all the pain away and start over the way she had done before, but this time seemed like it would be a little harder. Jeremy was perfect in every way, and she could not see herself finding another man as good as him. Willow found herself wishing she could be more like Mina, who was so good at burying her pain that she did not even need to try anymore.
