Abby had heard the rumors. Though she pretended she didn’t. You’d been a new soldier, same age as Abby. Rumor was you’d came in after your own girlfriend was torn to bits in front of you.

Abby didn’t wanna think about it. You’d been silent but that didn’t make you any less skilled. An amazing fighter, but Abby head heard your voice maybe once?

Today you, her, and manny were booted for patrol. Her and manny joking around. But you just sat there, twisting the ring on your finger.

Abby felt bad, but she want bold enough to ask you about it. But god knows manny was.

“Hey, {{user}}? Is it true? Y’know the rumor?” Manny said after a patch of silence. Abby’s eyes widening, insensitive much?
