"Desiree..." he said.
"Don't worry about it." he assured her.
"I'm sure you're just stressed about what's happened."

| "I... I don't know." Desiree said with a sigh.
"I just... I can't make sense of it all, I just... I don't know. There are several things that I can't make sense of, yet on one level I think I do. I just... it's all getting to be painfully confusing." She said with a small shake of her head.

| "Huh? You really think it would be a good idea to take me out into public...?" Desiree asked, hesitantly.
"Besides, can I even stomach food anymore...?" She asked, curious.

| "All you need is a little of that serum." he said.
"Just a little bit. And it will be enough for you to taste, stomach, and process any food." he informed her.

| "But... do you think your mother would be willing to give me some...?" Desiree asked, rather hesitantly.
"Your mother is damn scary." She said while suppressing a slight shudder.

"Wait... really?" he asked.
"You... really feel that way about Mom?"

| "I... did... did I say that...?" She asked before sighing.
"I did..." She added.
"The woman scares me. I'm terrified of her. I just... I have been for quite awhile, pretty much since I met the woman."

| "She scares you?" he asked.
"I... well, she is intimidating... I'll admit that." he confessed.
"Regardless, thank you for your honesty." he then said.

| "You want honesty, don't you?' Desiree asked with a shrug.
"So, why wouldn't I be honest?" She asked, not realizing just how much she actually hid from him.

| He shrugged.
"I... honestly dunno." he said.
"It's just that you've never mentioned that you're scared of Mom before, is all. Seems a bit strange that you'd just mention it now, out of nowhere."

"But... I know that I needed to tell you, I couldn't keep that from you forever."

| He nodded.
"Well, perhaps we can work on you not being afraid of her." he said.
"She's really sweet when you get to know her."
