Becky, now that her arms were free, slipped her arms around Cath and held tight to him. Letting her head rest against his chest, she let out a little sigh. "You shouldn't feel sorry or apologetic about anything that she said to me." she told him. "If anything I wish that I could tell her that I could give her everything she's obviously aching for, but I don't even think it's just a motherly figure that she wants." Becky told him as she let her eyes flick up to his.
"She misses you." she told him. "At least the you that you were before you lost your wife and sons." she amended. "She says that you don't smile any more like you used to. That's what she misses. She seems to think that it's me you're smiling because of and while I would love to think that I make you happy, I want you to be happy whether I'm around or not. She wants you to be happy."
