Trauma

It's been a month since the fight between us and the sky people, things have gotten back to normal, Nima and Ao'nung were incredibly close especially after the fight he's helped her feel more secure, Neteyam and Light have been inseparable, even more than they were before, Neteyam took any chance he could to hold her and I thought it was adorable

But after I saw Lights lifeless body I couldn't shake the image from my mind, I know she's still her with me and I don't take any moment for granted but I feel traumatized from seeing my little girl like that

It taken a toll on me, I haven't been as talkative and social, I stayed in our pod, I still did everything I could for my dear family but I still had the fear of the sky people coming for us again

Im sure the others have noticed my behaviour but they didn't push me, until now

I was sitting in our pod wrapping up leftover food in leaves when Tsu'tey sat down beside me

"Hey my love, can we talk?" He asked as he pushed my hair back so he could see me

"What about?" I still didn't look at him

"Stop" he stopped me and turned me towards him

"Baby look at me" he said as he gently cupped my face making me look at him

"What's wrong, you haven't been acting like your usual self for a while, I was going to wait to see if you got any better because I know it's been hard but you never leave here and you've pushed me away and I know that's not like you, so what's wrong, please talk to me" he pleaded

A tear trailed down my cheek

"I'm so sorry Tsu'tey, it's just......ever since I saw Light on the beach I can't get that image out of my head, she's here now and I know that but it hurts so much everytime I blink or close my eyes, I don't know what to do Tsu'tey, please help me" I cried

"Why didn't you say anything my love, you know I'd never judge you, but I've felt the same, that day was terrifying but you just have to make every moment with her count, embrace that she came back that's what Eywa wanted, we have to make our time here with both Light, Nima and this baby worth it" he said wiping my tears

Talking to him made me feel better, he always knew how to calm me down and clear my head

"I'm just scared they're going to come back"

"We don't know if they will or not, but that's why we have to make as many memories as we can" he placed his hand on my small bump

"Thank you Tsu'tey for everything you've given me, you know I never take my moments with you for granted"

"Come my love, you need to get out, let's go for a swim"

Tsu'tey is everything I could have ever asked for
