in front

Lisa hides her face, her reactions, her everything. The fact that Mia, even when she gets lost, is so consistently able to find her, is both vaguely unsettling and extremely impressive.

Chief this, Chief that. But Mia's the one who's grown so much, come so far. Mia's the one who teases pride out of Lisa that Lisa's actually honored to give, to be thought worthy of it.

Being seen is so natural to Mia that Lisa starts to wonder if, someday, she might be like that too.

Not because she wants to, but because Mia'll make so she just...is.
