have you been sleeping any better ? (from claire)

THE QUESTION WAS ABRUPT YET it was not very unexpected. Moira would think herself GOOD at hiding these things--- from most people anyways. There are those could read trough her though, luckily, they’re only few in number & wouldn’t post any issues to her. Kathy is usually the one TOPPING that list; getting anything by her maternal instincts wasn’t easy at all. It often ended in FAILURE & those rare times she thought she got her mother fooled... Kathy was always PRETENDING not to notice & letting things slide because she was feeling like it.
BARRY & CLAIRE WERE A different case. They’re SURVIVORS. They had both gone through the same horrors more than one time--- The thought along left her REELING at the realization of it. She used to hear their stories about those ‘ incidents ‘ --- never had she ever thought that SHE would end up in a similar situation herself. Sometimes she got the urge to ask them HOW they managed to put it behind them & move on... She knows it is only what it appears to be, that on the inside they’re still feeling those HORRORS just as she does.
She knows it, yet still...
