Sarah's smirk was replaced by another look of concern. Not pity but... sympathy. She moved her robotic hand from the back of the couch to Silvias leg, right above the knee.
" Yes, I know Silvia. And... all things considered you're doing fantastic. "
Sarah sat down on the couch beside Silvia folding one left over the other and resting an arm on the back of the couch.
" If I had to guess I'd say it might have something to do with being a Gamma. "
She said with a slight smirk.
Sarah just held her face in her hands looking between Silvias eyes with her brow furrowed in concern.
" What happened. "
Keeping one hand on Silvias cheek she moved the other down to her waist and guided her back into her own room towards a couch.
She locked eyes with Silvia and her expression immediately softened. She stepped inside, hitting the door controls without looking to let it close behind her and took Silvias face in her hands.
" Oh sweetgirl... what's the matter... "
Sarah stood as the felt the door start to slide open. She wore her typical attire. Black camouflaged fatigue pants tucked into her boots and a grey sleeveless shirt that clung to her body. Her hair tied back into a small ponytail and a patrol cap on her head matching the pants.
" Do you love Xiphos. "
Sarah replied immediately.
" They are gone. But you love them. You are still here, at least for now and I love you. You're all I have left. "
" I'm sorry if I ever make you feel as though you're a tool Silvia. You don't have to forgive me just... "
She sighed and dropped her head to look at the floor.
" Just know I'm being genuine when I say I do love you. "
There was a moment of silence. Then silence turned her her slightly towards the door. Talking as if it wasn't there.
" You know the myth of Icarus right? Flew too close to the sun... wings melted and he fell. "
She smiled... but it was pained.
" I guess we did too. "
There was a light chuckle from the other side of the door. It lacked any sort of mirth or joy, but a pained laugh.
" Icarus... "
She said, looking up at the ceiling of the hallway. Ignoring the pain from the florescent lights.
She rested the back of her head on the door.
" I came because I wanted to see you. I've been busy as of late, and you're always deployed. We never get to just... be around eachother anymore. "
