[ Diva looks up at him as he begins to speak, and for a moment, her expression is difficult and hard to read. It's a strange expression, like she's uncertain what she should be showing on her face, but it's clear why after a moment.
We're friends - your sister won't change that.
It has her bringing her hands up to cover her nose and mouth as a strange hiccuping noise comes out of her mouth before she starts to cry. It's nice, hearing something like that, so it's really out of relief. She's not completely sure if she can believe it, but she wants to, and that's all that matters. It's a crack in her defenses that isn't really much, but behind the walls she's built up is a lifetime of pain, of hurt, and she's never been allowed to express it at all. So when it cracks, she can't help herself. She's relieved, and even if it feels like she might be fooling herself, if Garry is telling the truth, then... He'll be the first one.
It's so sad, though, that in living for almost two centuries, that he's one of the very few people she's given that trust to. All of her pretty masks are forgotten for the moment, because these aren't crocodile tears, but real, ugly, sobbing tears. And she's doubtlessly getting them all over Garry, since she chooses to hide her face by clinging to him. ]
