Asking for help had never really been an issue before now. Wanda always had Pietro and he had her. That was all they ever needed, but now they were separated from each other and she had to learn when it was time to go asking for it.
"I need your help." Obviously or she wouldn't be on their doorstep, letting this man practically hold her at gunpoint. "My brother, Pietro, is missing."
When she uttered those words, real, live emotion reflected in her darkening blue eyes. Her brother was everything to her. He was her world. Without him, she felt like she was missing a part of her soul.
"Please," she nearly pleaded, tears beginning to cloud her vision. She swallowed hard, fighting back the tears that were threatening to fall. "I cannot do this alone."
Maybe it was asking too much, as she was getting better than what she deserved. But, at this point, she didn't have much to lose.
