O Sarilho

6 Panels

Panel 1:
Nikita is standing by the big red door, expressionless. He addresses the determined Dária.

Nikita: Why?
Dária: You saved my life!
Nikita: That is not a good reason.
Dária: Well... You are... You're the only one I can trust!

Panel 2:
Dária raises a hand over her heart and her medal.

Dária: Nobody cares if I live or die!

Panel 3:
She hugs Nikita, who doesn't retribute the gesture but looks genuinely surprised.

Dária (cont): But you dragged me out of those woods, even if you didn't have to, and I...

Panel 4:
She bawls on his shoulder. Nikita does nothing.

Panel 5,6:
Dária gets her act together, and cleans her face with a hand. Nikita looks at her, serious.

Dária: I''m-I'm sorry. I overstepped.
Nikita: Dária... You have DISOBEYED MY ORDERS once. Should you so much as THINK of doing it again, no amount of blue blood will save you from what I'm going to do to you.
