It was a sad tale ... One he wished he could have changed. He wanted to reach out and ease the cry away, but he couldn't. Sasha felt helpless, useless. There was nothing he could do! It went against everything he'd been working towards. "I'm staying here. My room is right over there, so I don't have far to travel to sleep." He did need to get his things though, but he didn't want to leave.

"I like spending time with you, so apparently someone does." He grinned, trying to bring some joy to the room. Already, Sasha was trying so hard. So far he hadn't made a dent, but hopefully his optimism would do so soon.
