Sarah's relief mixed with guilt because she assumed that her mother is doing things behind her back. Well, it wouldn't be the first time, but now they were under attack and this was serious, yet Sarah didn't reach out to Stella for explanations; instead, she categorized her mother as an enemy.

"Hey, hey… it's OK…", Stella said and pulled Sarah into a hug.

Sarah sobbed. "It's not OK. I am a bad daughter."

"You are a wonderful daughter.", Stella comforted her.

"I assumed that you are hiding things from me." Even though she sobbed, Sarah picked her words carefully. If Sarah said how she assumed that Stella is the enemy, things would escalate quickly.

"You have a lot on your plate, sweetie…", Stella said while rubbing Sarah's back. "It's normal to make a mistake. You will grow by reflecting on it and doing your best not to repeat it."
