"Oh yeah, this is nothing." Tara was trying to sound tough, but she was visibly upset.<br/>"Two difficult encounters in about as many minutes." Bronwyn observed.<br/>"Oh that first guy was a chump." Tara said absently, standing up and pacing around the small "office space" with her arms folded. To hide the shaking, Bronwyn guessed.<br/>"So 'twas the woman an' boy who upset you, aye?" she asked.<br/>Tara glanced at Bronwyn, then looked away. She said nothing, just paced. Bronwyn stepped into her path and gently gripped Tara's shoulders, stopping her.<br/>"Ya don' have to tell me anything ya don' want. 'Tis none o' my business anyway. But ya keep goin' an' you're gonna have a path worn into the floor."
