Astoria knew she probably shouldn't have told Alette. But she couldn't help it. She wanted to talk to someone. Her reaction made her feel better and somewhat vindicated again, even if the other woman didn't know the whole story. She shot Alette a weak smile and shrugged. "I should have been more careful." She blamed herself a little for being so stupid even if she knew most of the blame fell squarely on Cormac. "He said he was sorry and that he cared about me. As if it somehow made it better." She shook her head at the memory. It didn't matter,
That made Astoria smile genuinely. "I… Thank you. Thanks so much." It was nice of Alette to be so supportive. Astoria appreciated it immensely.
