Myka's eyes followed every movement that the two of them made. And listened to every word spoken. When Helena guided Claudia over to the couch, Myka willingly allowed the older woman to guide her into a hug. Her arms instinctively moving to wrap around her girlfriends waist as best she could. We are family, and we will get through this together. 10 words that held a profound message. Helena was right that they were a family and that they would get through this together. The Land of Make Believe had proven to be unpredictable. People came and went. And there was nothing they could do to stop it.
"Hels, right. We are family and families stay together. I know we lost Pete and then Steve, but here right now, the three of us have each other. And we are strong." Myka said lifting her head away from Helena's body and without taking a moment to breathe. She knew that at any moment either of them could be snatched away and sent back. It would be wrong to believe that it wasn't a possibility. But for the moment they were together. Myka reached her hand over to grip Claudia's hand to reassure the younger woman.
