There's a pause, and she tries not to look at Eustace now. She hasn't even spoken to him about this much, and maybe one day, she'll be brave enough to show him. For now, the words catch in her throat... but she wants to be brave. If not for herself, then at least for Lyria's sake.]
Yeah. For a while. When I was fifteen, I woke up in a whole other place where I didn't know anyone. I had no friends or family, or even money to get by.
[In a place like Midgar too, where survival is key. But she won't get into that part.]
It took some time, but I made it through. It was hard, and lonely... I was jealous of people who did have friends... but eventually, I met people who cared about me... and it got easier.
