Sophia sat on her quarters' floors, finally having a moment to herself and herself only.
She hadn't been left alone since Julia's untimely demise. A moment to herself was what she seemingly needed.
She heaved a sigh of relief - she'd locked her doors and Nicholas was god knows where.
All her raw emotions rushed in, and she found herself getting teary.
Her heart thudded faster by a tenfold - these were the emotions she'd been holding back.
These were the emotions she never got to release since they'd been bottled up inside her.
It was only a matter of time before she exploded.
She sniffled once.
One sniffle turned into two.
Sophia found herself on her bedroom floor, sobbing.
No one was there to comfort her and assure her everything was going to be okay - and that was why she let go of all her emotions at once.
