Calla replied very softly,"Its ok Dora, no need to apologize. I understand it happens to the best of us. If you need anything..." Calla paused to hopefully imply the seriousness of the gesture, “anything at all let me know. I'll do my very best to help." Calla finished with a very squished sad face. And then, forced a smile and turned back to her flat listings.
Dora met Calla's eyes and said, sincerely, "Thanks, that means a lot." She then lowered her head and shut her eyes. Her body was being torn in two by the turmoil. She needed to get away for a second. Slowly getting up from the desk she said, "I am going to go get s drink of water really quickly, I'll be back." snd she smiled genuinely at Calla and winced as she walked out of the room.
