I let Nina touch me a second time before opening my eyes and rising from the bed I turned to her.
"What's the matter."
Sitting beside me, Nina's gaze silently bored into mine for some seconds before she spoke.
"I feel different" Nina said shaking her head.
"How "I asked taking hold of Nina's hand.
"I'm not sure, I'm just worried about Nina and us."
"Should we go check on her?" I asked feigning ignorance.
I moved to get off the bed, but Nina pushed me back.
"No, not like that. With everything that's been happening, I don't know if she still loves me."
"You're her mother, why won't she love you."
"Because I betrayed her."
"Is it a betrayal if in the end you were right. "
Nina bit her lips in thought at my words, fighting and debating with the new feeling that had consumed her.
"It's all so foreign, all so different. I know I told you I love you and am ready to die with you, but right now, I'm not so sure."
"Nina" I started but the woman furiously shook her head.
