You didn't need to claim it, actions speak louder than words. I've all ready gone through having Irene go behind my back to ask you what happened to Christina and why I am afraid of my anger because apparently she thought I was too fragile to not be able to talk about it. Please don't start underestimating what I can and cannot do. I would rather you ask me and chance my saying no or that I can't for whatever reason than merely assume I can't. Even if I said no, at least I'd know you asked me.
You're not a burden, Myka. But if you don't think you can ask me things, how am I supposed to think I can ask you things when I need to? You may not be the Myka who was here before, but at the same time, I'm not exactly the same Helena that was here when you first arrived either. I won't lie, it is hard to balance the memories and emotions of what I've been through, and most of the time since I came back I find it difficult to connect to people again. But it's infinitely harder to find that balance if I think my friends don't believe in me enough to come to me if they need to. I may be having a difficult time of things, but I will not abandon those I care about, and I will do whatever I can for you. All I ask is for the same consideration in return.
