Thea, on the other hand, while she strongly preferred the company of others, could tolerate being alone. Maybe due to the fact her mother rarely spent time with her, her father had never been around much to begin with, and really never had a healthy parental figure to look up to. Naturally, since her mother spent more time with her, just barely a bit more than her father, that she looked up to her. Maybe that's why she was always looking for her mother's approval, even after her death.
"That does sound cheesy." Thea grinned at her words, not quite understanding how one's heart could be strong. Then again, maybe her warped belief that if you smiled, everything would be alright, had the heart play a role in it. Because if she hadn't clung to that belief for so long, she might've crumbled under the pressure.
"I do remember a bit from one song. I had to press my ear against the wall really hard to hear it, though." The pine bends over the trembling thing so only the vine can hear her sing... Bits and pieces floated through her mind, something stored away in her head, no matter how hard she tried to get rid of it. Her mother's voice never sounded that soft, that relaxed and... content when she was around Thea.
What shall you fear when I am here?
At Suiteheart's answer to her question, the words that had flitted through her mind were quick to hide in the depths of her mind once again, as if chased away by Suite's soothing tone, the song slipping off her tongue like honey.
"I like the sound of that." Thea murmured, "I think I would've liked your mom too."
"She would've gotten a kick out of you, Thea."
"What do you mean by that?" Thea couldn't understand what was so funny.
