MAEA
Well. There certainly was a bit more. Was it strange that the revelation of the unborn child hit her harder than the deaths of too many ten year old boys? Was it awful of her to care more about Hotaru's kiss at his wedding than blighted, drug-induced sex? Probably. But it hit so much closer to home, was somehow more personal because she knew the faces of these people, would see them walking around, talk to them... She recalled the conversation she'd had with Hotaru, the woman's light flirtations and the lingering hand as she'd called Maea beautiful. It had made her blush.
For a long time she lay silent, very still in the bed beside him. Her gaze traveled away from his profile, up into the ceiling, not quite seeing the rough structure of the building; a dull ache was building in her temples from the crying and her head was full of thoughts, scattered and confused. A bit overwhelmed.
"Is... this the part where I decide?" It was a quiet question, asked to the air; it was hard to tell what she might be thinking, her tone did not reveal anything. And still her face was quite impassive, unreadable. "To stay, or not..."
Maea turned her head back to look at him; her eyes were red and swollen but there were no tears there, no clues, no hints.
"What would be your best case scenario, Sunjata?" Tell me, let me know what you fear losing the most.
