Sloane debated pretending she hadn't noticed the girl crying, unsure if she expressed concern that it might be misread as nosiness. In the end, she decided she couldn't ignore the girl's sadness or an opportunity to potentially help, and asked as gently as possible, "Um, are you okay?"

Oh, introductions.

Valentina enthusiastically extended her hand, like her dad had always taught her to. It was polite, he’d said. “I’m Valentina but you may call me Val or Tina but whatever else you prefer.” Her smile faded a little, suddenly feeling sad all over again. The eleven year old nodded slowly, rubbing her hands together just.. for something to do. “Yeah. I miss my parents, that’s all.” Would Sloane think that’s pathetic?
