"Wha-Whoa! Ann?!" Jacques exclaimed as she suddenly threw herself into him, gripping his hand in both of hers and keeping her face pressed against his shoulder. Her shoulders quivered and her breathing was hitched, followed by the glimpse of tears staining her cheeks. Jacques frowned. He had rarely seen Ann cry, and those rare occasions made his heart ache at the sight of it. Ann was always the 'rough around the edges' type, and found enjoyment out of almost everything in her life, so tears like this were a shocking sight.
"Ann, what happened? Please, tell me!" Jacques insisted quietly. Ann just shook her head, at the same time giving a quivering shrug as she continued to sob. Jacques nodded slowly and lifted his free arm behind her back, gently pulling her closer in a comforting embrace, finally understanding why she was crying.
"Its okay, Ann," he said. "I'm here, don't worry. I'm here, always."
