Esther and Rory had a really good time together. Esther, after so many years, had a good laugh, which made her feel much more relieved. It felt like a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulder. She felt like there was a log in her heart, which has been dislodged. She had a strange appetite when she ate with Rory tonight.
She had a family, but she had left them to focus on her military duties when she was assigned to Derek. She could relate to his issue. She lost her dad to a war that arose in their village somewhere in Africa when she was a little girl. She was very lucky to have lost only her father. Well, she will say lucky, because Derek lost all of his family. She really pitied him, and that was why she agreed to join his squad towards his mission. To help him avenge his family. Whoever did that did not deserve to live.
