But Jata continued his tirade, and so she had no time to think too deeply on it. Her answer to his scenario would likely not be what she had expected, given how she had handled things in the past. "If that happened to me, I would mourn, but I would keep moving forward." she said softly, crossing her arms. "I would be thankful for the second chance I had with you. I would mourn my loss of you again. But I wouldn't disservice your memory or the strength you had given me by becoming an angry, drunk."
