Celina saw the hand outstretched by Zoey, instinctively, she tightened the hug around Lana, a bit hesitant to trust the new woman.
She was always taught when grown up not to trust strangers, and since Zoey was a stranger, one that looked dangerous based off her superhuman feats, how could they trust her?
Zoey felt the hesitation from Celina, her expression dropping a bit, looking more solemn.
She could see a fraction of herself in Celina and Lana, how truly terrified they were, it was something she had a similar experience with, at the hands of her own family.
'....' Zoey sighed, shaking her head slightly, now was not the time to think of the disgusting faces of her family, she needed to bring these kids back to David.
'They seem untrusting of me. How can I make them trust me? I need to get them out before it gets dark.' Zoey thought, scratching her cheek as she observed the two girls, that still had a terrified expression on their faces.
