Private Are Daughters Destined to became like their Mothers?

Amber was indeed curious, her mind abuzz with what horrible thing Phaedra had done to Dalia that caused so much pain and grief. As insatiable her hunger was to know what it was that transpired... she knew whatever secret Dalia was keeping would destroy her perception of Phaedra forever. Maybe this was the one thing she was better off not knowing after all...

"I'm... I'm sorry I... I..." she wanted to apologize for even if it was something knew she was never meant to know. Still she wanted to say... something, anything that could comfort her sister. Yet she didn't know what to say in moment like this! As she thought of nothing else, she took her hand and held it tightly onto Dalia and focus only on her sister.

"I... I trust you Dalia. I trust you more than anyone! I really don't want to be anything like them. Especially whatever it is that Phaedra did to you. But...I've just... I just been so afraid that... I will grow up just to become just like them without ever even realizing it. A-and if I... hurt you... I... I'd never forgive myself."

Amber could now feel her own tears as the leaked from her eyes even as she tried to pushed them back with quick dab on her shoulder. All she wanted was nice pleasant talk with her sister but instead the two of them had a crying fest on the floor.

"S-sorry I don't mean to cry... Violet actually said something similar about how I wasn't going to become anything Pandora or Phaedra and I'm really happy that you don't think I'm anything like them either. It been something that have been... bothering me a lot as of late. The thought of doing something that would... hurt you or make you hate me just... makes me feel sick. I want to be the sister that is there for you... since well... we don't have anyone else."

"Ah... heh. Yeah I sometimes forget you can see people's connections sometimes. I must be nice knowing when someone says they love you you know they mean it." sighed Amber as Dalia pulled her in close. Amber would rest her head on head on her sister's shoulder, taking in the moment before she then placed her hand on her sister's knee. "Thanks Dalia. I really think I needed to hear that from you. As amazing as you are, I know talky feely stuff isn't always your forte. But I still appreciate it."

Amber then looked down to the old photograph that was almost cast aside. Everything about seemed so idyllic but... was the way things were back then or was it just something she wished to have been true? She supposed the question now was if it worth holding onto that image of the past still or...to just let it go? Though she knew her answer... part of her was still hesitant to actually commit.

"Hey. So, what do you think I should do with...this?" asked Amber as she held up the picture between her fingers, before sliding a look over to her sister.
