"Can-" She breathed the word, trying to pull herself together. "I'm sorry. No, please, don't- don't take it back-" And she'd started to cry again, this time different because it was nearly silent, shaking her head as she sat in that chair. "I'm sorry, Jackson. I should- I know I should be able to be okay. Please, don't take it back. This- I'll fix... it." And what she meant by that - what she meant was that she'd fix herself, somehow.
