[no, it's. another thing that she should've guessed. she doesn't even know what she would've been able to offer Clover if she'd said yes. the admission that it scares her is interesting. she didn't think Clover was the kind of person who got scared, but she has enough sense not to say that out loud.]

It's fine. I get it. [she doesn't sound hurt. it's not a surprise to her. but while her tone is still soft, while they're still kind of like this and being regular people, instead of (at least in Anna's case) whatever front other people see...]

If you're still not ready to talk to Rose, promise me you'll at least talk to someone about it sometime? Me or Jasmine, or even Lina if you have to. [she could never get her head around Lina. the girl was too happy all the time. it was grating.] Don't just let it sit there if you can avoid it.

[listen to her talking about not letting things fester. great work there, Anna.]
