Sara had been silent for the entire ride to the scene. Catherine tried to talk to her, but she couldn't think of anything to say. When they reached the scene, Sara's expression had changed. Her eyes were now cold, dark, and distant.
"Do you want to work the crime scene?"
"Yes, that's my job…It will help distract me."
So they went into the house and process the scene. After they finished, they returned to the lab to have the evidence processed.
"When you told me about what happened between you two, I was surprised. Now, I'm stunned. The way he's acting isn't like him at all."
"Yeah, I know…When we were together that night, I really thought we would start having a relationship together…Now though, our only connection is this child…I would have loved him forever, but he decides to go for some new girl that he barely knows…Over a woman who has known him for 10 years…If he would have gone for you, I would have understood better, but Sophia!" The fire had returned to her eyes, along with tears.
"Listen Sara, he's gone too far. I'm on your side. I'm your friend ok. I won't abandon you. And since I'm a mother, I can help you through all of the complicated stuff ok?"
She half smiled. "Thanks Cath."
They go back to work.
Nick and Greg were at their scene looking over their evidence and talking.
"This is all kinda hard to believe. It isn't like Grissom to act like this. And Sara is already troubled enough, but now she has this to add to her problems."
"I know Greg, we all know. Sara had told me about her being with Grissom, but she was trying to move past it all. I suppose we can help her out as much as possible right now. She's going to need us to support her."
"You're right, I don't care if Grissom is my boss, Sara is the one who needs us right now."
They both smile, and then they pack up and leave.
Grissom and Warrick are at their scene preparing to leave, when Grissom's cell rings. He answers it.
"Grissom…What's wrong?…Of course…Where should we meet?…What time?…I'll be there, don't worry alright…Bye."
He closes the phone and Warrick looks at him. "Fine, ask it."
"What?"
"You've had a look on your face like you want to ask me a question all day."
"I just don't get why you did that to Sara. I don't want to know either. I'll see you back at the lab."
He was disgusted, and he took off without a second glance. Grissom stood there for a little while longer, thinking. Then he left.
