    ❛  SONYA  ––––  oh sonya.  COME HERE,  ❜  her tone grew tender and kind and reserved for sonya alone these days.  natasha breathed a sigh of contentment & squeezed sonya tight.  it was to sonya that natasha owed everything, and natalya knew she was not the only one who could make such a claim.  ❛  dearest sonya, you must believe me when i tell you that i know this now, and i was foolish to think anything else of you for saving my life.  oh, sonya, forgive me.  ❜  ( sonya had already granted tasha forgiveness, but she felt a deep need to ask for it again, and perhaps she would feel such a need every time the opportunity arose itself. )  they sat together in natasha & pierre’s home, and it was late into the night, and they were telling old stories that perhaps weren’t truly old, but merely far away-sounding.  another squeeze from natalie.  ❛  sonya ?  i would do the same.  ❜
