the relief lasted for only a moment. pygmalion continued to berate her decision, his words growing in absurdity. what are you really implying? bhediya asked, that i shouldn't have helped him because it would make you jealous? she waited a moment to continue. you are not the.. the be-all-end-all. i still have a family to take care of.
