Cissie managed to suppress a sigh. She could see how upset Cassie was and how hard she was trying to ignore it or repress it or shove it aside. It hurt, watching that, because Cissie knew it would only make things harder for Cassie later, when everything she was locking away forced its way out again.
As badly as she wanted to push and force the issue, Cissie couldn't. She couldn't do it when Cassie looked that miserable and was asking her 'please' not to. So she just gave Cassie another hug and held back her sigh and nodded. "Okay. But--another time, maybe? You know you can talk to me about anything, any time."
