I was so happy when she came back. It was like...everything would be fine, here, because we were together. We could have a big adventure here, and we'd be together and even if we wouldn't remember when we went home...
And I think about that a lot. I won't remember this. It's a vacation from life. A vacation that doesn't end, but I'm not missing anything back home. I've just been stuck for a long time.
[She glances at Cissnei, shaking her head in frustration. The nightmare experience had brought it all so clearly into focus for her. She leans a little into the other woman's hand, all full of stirred emotions.]
She's been gone way longer than we were ever together.
I have to admit, a part of me still wonders if time really does stop back home. Sometimes I feel like everything is just continuing without me and..and that no one even notices I'm not there.
[Because living in the shadows, so to speak, was how she had done things. How the Turks had always done things.
Would they even realize she was missing?]
Still...having her come and go like that couldn't have been easy. Even if you were only officially together for a few days before she left, pain is still pain.
