The idea alone was painful to consider, causing her chest to tighten at the notion of it. She would still have been carrying around the weight of such an angry bitterness, never admitting... and never truly embracing hope beyond action.

Never knowing the piercing fear or the endless joy she lived in now.

She ignored his pitiful statement about his own affairs. He'd made his choices and he was going to live with them. And tried her best of figure out what to say that wasn't the honest sharpness of the second part in her head.

"Yes." She afforded after a moment, even as she was frowning. As though it were possible to be raised in a court, or at all, as a woman and not to have been bred toward the idea. "I have though of what it would be like to have a family of my own."
