"What more is there to live for?", she said in between soft sobs. Frustration swept within his body as he struggled for words of comfort. She cried harder, her usual long neat braid was now a disheveled mess. Kalin took shakey steps towards her, still unaware of what to do. At the foot of her feet he sat down, then slowly reached for her hand. She hesitated at first, flinching at the feel of his touch. Eventually giving in, their hands interlocked as he held on tightly. "I don't know how it feels to be going through what you're going through", he said freely, letting the words slip out, "but I want you to know that I'm here for you". Watching tears fall from her cheek to the ground, he went on, "I know it's hard for you too let people be there for you", he started before lifting her head up with his free hand. His sparkly green eyes were now an intense dark shade of green as they fixated on hers. "Let me be your person".
