Thea lifted her face and looked at Celeste's eyes. Her eyes were watery, and the tears threatened to flow down. Within two seconds, the tears rained down her cheeks, and Thea collapsed on the ground, sobbing.
Celeste had cried so heavily like Thea several times, but she had always had her mother beside her to comfort her. That helped her process the pain, and get herself together.
Knowing how potent someone's presence was for her when she broke down, Celeste decided to stay by Thea's side. She sat on the floor, her shoulder touching Thea's. When Thea's wailing intensified, Celeste intertwined her fingers between Thea's.
She stayed there in silence until Thea stopped crying. Her maid rubbed her face harshly, and her breath started to balance out. "Please forgive me, My Lady. You just witnessed my unsightly side," Thea said.
Celeste tilted her head to see Thea's face and wiped the tears from her cheek. "Is there anything that I did wrong?"
