In The Eyes of the Beholder

Dorran looked up from his breakfast at Carlotta, she is just playing with her food, something she does not do often.

"Are you ok?" He wanted to ask but she did not look like she was in any mood to talk.

When Kaia or Max called to her, she would instantly lighten up and smile brightly but other than that, she seems to be lost in her own world and there seems to be no chance of her coming out of it.

He heard a little clutter on the side and looked to see Kaia tapping her fork on the table to get his attention.

"What is wrong with her?" Kaia asked. She is still not very good at moving her hands, a little bit of exhaustion is still leftover but she is doing pretty well.

"I don't know." he signed back, looking at Max who shrugged as well.

"Maybe she is thinking about Shia and is worried about her?" He asked.
