Lara's truth

"Liyana," Lara went in search of her little sister. Liyana took off her blue lens glasses protecting her eyes during work. She looked up and kept the laptop away. The door burst open and Lara walked in. She did not look fine.

"Liyana," she burst out crying. Liyana was surprised.

"What happened? Lara? What's going on? Are you hurt somewhere? Are you sick?" Liyana grew worried. 

"I'm sick, I'm sick of myself, I'm hurt and I deserve it all," Lara could not stop crying. She sobbed. 

"There, there," Though Liyana did not get a clue about what is going on, she tried being there for Lara. Liyana hugged her cousin sister close and patter her bag. She could feel her t-shirt getting wet at the shoulder with Lara's tears. 

"Do you want to talk about it?" Liyana asked. Lara nodded. She sat up straight. Liyana offered tissues. Lara wiped her nose and her eyes. She wiped the tears and tried to control her emotions.
