Seren let go when Maeve sat up, granting her whatever space she needed. To her, it sounded very much as though the woman was trying to convince herself that what she felt was in the past. But she did not argue, because what good would that do? Only add more difficulties to someone who already struggled.
"What do you want?" she asked instead, and reached for a slice of melon. "In a perfect world, if you could dictate exactly how it should be. You want to be Sunjata's friend, yes? And be part of his life... What else?" Biting into the fruit, she caught a droplet of juice before it could escape the lips and chewed slowly, savoring the fresh taste. It had warmed in the sun, but that only brought out more of the flavor.
