Too late for a second chance (Lila and Dorian)

Faith leaned against Nicole, who carefully supported her. At that moment, she felt a motherly care she had never experienced.

Tears fell as she forced herself to speak. "Maybe I wouldn't have been pushed to such length if my mother was even half as kind as you.

"I often think maybe I'm just a terrible daughter, and that's why they don't love me."

Nicole carefully adjusted her. "Of course. You and Lila are about the same age. Maybe you two can even be friends once things settle down.

"We also have a child at home, Yasmin. She's a very sweet girl. You can come by and play with her anytime."

She was afraid Faith might not make it through. Despite being a woman of few words, Nicole was now desperately searching for things to say.
