Freya didn't need to turn around to know who had just held her hand. The tears she had been trying to hold back since she left the daycare environment finally flowed out when she suddenly had the urge to cry loudly after feeling the warm touch that Vano gave her arm.
"Don't cry..."
Freya was surprised when Vano suddenly pulled her hand to get closer to a quiet alley and bring her body into Vano's arms. In a quiet alley, Vano suddenly hugged her warmly to muffle the sound of her crying. Freya was embarrassed before. She had tried to prepare as much as possible for today, only for someone to embarrass her not long after she arrived there.
Freya forgot that not everyone could accept her for who she was, like what Alexa and Vano had done for her all this time. Freya felt silly because she thought she could erase her mistakes just because Vano and Alexa never talked about it again.
