lips press together as her jaw trembles, unable to make any sort of eye contact as betty’s words sink in. god, it’s true. her dad’s gone, and gwen can’t really process it. it’s so much.

tears sting her eyes as she draws in a shaky breath, face scrunching in the hope it’ll push away her emotions. they’re overwhelming, they’re drowning her, and it’s like she can’t recall just how to really breathe.
“i, uh,” her sleeve passes over her face, wiping away the tears, “i really don’t think tired comes anywhere near describing what i am, but i don’t think there’s a better word, so...” gwen shrugs, arms crossing tightly across her chest in an attempt to do anything to help.
