I will be fine

"You can still call me Evie when we're alone. We're still friends after all, right?" Evie smiled amiably at Vera.

Vera looked down and lowered herself slowly back to her chair. "I'm not sure if I'm still worthy to be your friend. I am… I am just a nameless lady now." 

"You're not nameless. You are Vera… and you are still the most beautiful human I have ever seen." Evie grinned and Vera's lips trembled a bit. 

Evie moved forward and enveloped the trembling lady in a warm hug and the two embraced each other for a long time, not breaking the silence until Vera's trembling became a bit better. 

"I'm not sure how you ended up here. But… if you want to go back to the surface, just let me know. I can help you." Evie told her carefully. But Vera shook her head, slowly but firmly.
