" She certainly would, even though it felt a bit presumptuous to say when she had neither obligation nor authority to follow through. She didn't want to make idle promises anymore, yet she felt the threat of turning complacent like a fog looming on her peaceful horizon, as turning silent came dangerously close to turning away from important matters.
