Neoma's Journey to the Center

Neoma worked almost exclusively with parents who had lost a child. The grieving were often drawn to her, an inadvertent magnetic thing. It made her sheltered life blessed and necessary. She'd been doing it for so long she could exercise the deepest of human traumas for even the most resistant of patience. Neoma took advantage of his confusion to walk away. He could very well become a client of hers in the future, but not today. Not like this.
