It was never that she had been explicitly told not to be emotional, it just wasn't ... Comfortable to do so. "And to be fair, I would never really want Roland to say anything greatly personal to me unless it concerns Nariko." Frankly she thought he sucked at anything more than staring intensely. If anyone was talented in communicating themselves it had to be Alain or Nariko.
"... But you're probably right. It's still difficult to imagine. I didn't know anything about my parents, or my grandmother, not really. But maybe it's the sort of thing you figure out with time anyway." She looked off to one side, scraping her heel along the ground, a nervous habit of hers. "Something you learn to figure out when you're given a little help."
