Tifa Lockheart
I couldn't be mad at her; she was only trying to help. I stroke her hair gently.
"Shh...It's okay its okay…" Something must have really scared her...she doesn't cry
easily."No its not" she sobbed. I feel bad for yelling at her now. After she calmed
down she wiggled out if my arms. "What's wrong Xena?" She shook her head."It's
nothing" She is a very bad liar. "Come on tell the truth." "Just a nightmare is all" I
sit her down by me."Care to tell me?" She shook her head."Is it about…your
parents….?" She looked at me for a moment"Yeah……That…" I hugged her. "it's
okay…It was just a dream..." she nodded."Yeah….Just a dream" I could tell she
wasn't telling the truth but I didn't press on. She told me she was just really tired
and asked if I could leave. "Okay…just think about tomorrow for what you want."
She smiles weakly."Okay Teef."She lays back down and curls into the blanket. I go
and lay down on the couch. I wonder what Cloud would be doing right
now….Cloud…..where are you...?
Cloud Strife
I can't believe it. I'm back home. I should go visit mom….or Tifa… I can't show my
face over here now…Tifa would hate me…I'm no SOLDIER. I wish I knew what to
do….Tifa…If you can hear me I want you to know I'm here….and I'm really sorry…..
