Chelsea just listened in shock, but as Karen- not Lisa, she'd have to learn that- told her story, the blow was softened. It wasn't cold blood at all, Li-Karen would never be capable of such a thing. But she was in serious trouble, now. Don't speak, I know what you're thinking... And where was that smell of strawberries coming from?
"Oh, honey," she started, carefully avoiding using her friend's name for now. She rolled closer and took her hand. "If what you say is true... then you don't have anything to worry about. "You've proven to us that you're not that kind of person. The only thing you're guilty of is poor judgement. Don't worry. If you need a character witness, I'll be there for you." She reached out to hug Karen, but looked back at Sean. "She'll be okay, right?"
