And most of all, she didn't want anyone to see her cry.

He had seen her cry, but only for very good reason.

It was the first time he had seen her cry.

It was the first time I'd ever seen her cry.

She'd speak if she wanted to, but I never once saw her cry.

It was one of the few times I ever saw her cry.

It was the second time he had ever seen her cry.

He couldn't remember the last time he'd seen her cry.

It was only the second time I'd seen her cry.

It was the only time he'd ever see her cry.
