"Lucas… Do you think we could have been happy if I did not choose this path?"
The question echoed in his mind. How was he supposed to reply to a question like that?
His body had stiffened and his next breath was caught in his throat.
"Ah. It wasn't fair to ask you that."
Eva looked down and her hand trembled slightly before she resumed her petting of Red.
"No. I need to get this out because I am selfish."
Strength returned to her eyes and she clenched her fist tightly before turning her head to look at Lucas.
"There are so many things that I would change in my life in order to have things turn out differently."
He saw her chin quiver slightly.
"However, I honestly wish I could end up with you in the end. Even if I can not heal the wounds from your past."
A tear silently fell down her face as she gazed back into the fire.
