@intrepidustm / claire's apartment with marina
it was rare that claire cried in front of anyone but marina being with her when she'd seen the photo wasn't something that could be avoided. the woman stared at the screen, unable to take her eyes off it even though she felt the upset building. there they were, the three of them, announcing it on social media stating how happy and grateful they were when it came to their newly found family. the woman went pale as tears welled in her eyes; the tears fell when she'd seen her direct messages were full of sympathy messages, or people being angry that she hadn't mentioned it. "what is this shit?" she spat as she forcefully placed her phone on the coffee table so marina could see. of course, it wasn't a post directed at her but when she was hurt, claire would take things personally.
