Summary
“Yes,” Clara whispered, like she dare not speak any louder for fear of scaring her would-be rescuers away. “It’s like you’re here with…” Saying it was even harder, as the months, years – decades? – of being alone in her prison rose like a tidal wave.
“Hey, hey.” The woman seemed to understand, her voice soft, soothing. “It’s all right. It’s okay. We’re gonna get you out of there, I promise. What’s your name?”
Clara had used so many names in the past, but stripped down to a trembling mess of vulnerability, the only one that came to her was her original Earth-given name. “It’s...it’s Clara.”
There was a long pause. “Good name. Clara.” And maybe it was her near-reverent tone, but Clara almost believed her.
