Ocean's Breath Plateau Holding on to something I can't see so you can comfort me tonight

Do you love him?

Marina stilled. For a moment she was stunned; she could only wonder if it was so obvious, if the others could tell, too. Or maybe it was only a father's intuition which guided Aditya now. She couldn't be sure.

Does it matter? Her voice was soft, dark blue eyes finding Aditya now. He chose his life - and I chose mine long before we ever met. If you're asking whether I wonder sometimes, when my daughter looks at me with his eyes, if it might have been different - what woman hasn't wondered?

If you're asking whether I regret that Chakliux is my husband - I don't. I would choose him a thousand times.

But yes, I love him. For all the good it does me.
