As Jacen rounded the corner heading away from Tahiri's room he ran head long into his sister sending both of them into the hard duracreet floor.
"Jacen? Did you just go and see Tahiri?" Jaina asked silently praying to herself that he hadn't. However, the look in Jacen's eyes told her everything she needed to know. "Jacen you nerfhearder!" she sighed, "Didn't Tahiri tell you that she didn't want your help? That you remind her too much of Anakin?"
"I know all of that Jay, but I just hate seeing her like this. She use to be such a ball of fire in the Force. Now she's little less than a flicker. I just thought that maybe she would talk about it now." Jacen confessed, his head down looking into the floor.
"Jasa, Tahiri wants to work this out on her own. She won't accept our help or anyone else's. You're going to heave to learn to accept this."
Jacen suddenly lifted his head, his eyes were darker than Jaina had ever seen them before. "How can I accept the suffering of someone who would have been my sister-in-law had my brother not died? How can we sit idle and allow Tahiri to sit in her room day in and day out with only her torment for company?" Jacen was nearly to the point of tears as he said this.
"Jasa, I can let her be because I know what she's going through. I may not have lost my love, but I've had to face my inner demons. It's not a battle that anyone person can get you through. The only person that can get you through is the person you are meant to be with. Sorry Jasa, but it's the unfortunate truth." Jaina looked at her brother. He knew that she spoke the truth. He would just have to accept that he couldn't help Tahiri in this fight. He just prayed that someone else could.
