She gave a heavy sigh, as if some worries shifted from her shoulders. She swallowed audibly and closed her eyes against a new onslaught of tears, "I trust the both of you... I feel like I owe you more respect than I've shown. I have been acting rash, not thinking at all of what could and did happen. I am supposed to be a lady. You have every right to put me out for my stupidity, and you haven't," she paused and then said, "Oh, but these tears. Why must I keep crying like a child?" Hormones, duh.
