Ann entered and walked over to the bed, "I thought you might need a warm drink and compact. I know things are harder now. You should not be left to grieve alone. May I sit next to you? Kate is bound by protocol and cannot stay in a gentleman's room. I am not ask'n for favors and none to be tak'n advantage. Don't hide your tears and pain." She closed the door and sets the tray on the night stand. "Ya been cry'n and need a body ta hold. I will stay until you sleep. I promise." She crossed her heart and extends her hand to take his. "Ya hurts and is not good to keep hurts inside. Ya want to grieve or talk..I am here to get you though this. I know men folk are not much comfort at times." She gives him a soft, empathetic expression and stands non-enticing. "I lost my folks when I was young and know you feel it is fault. There was nothing you could have done. You did the right thing..let those that are stronger fight and the time will come you will fight if you must. Here you will be well trained."
