After saying those words, Barak had fallen unconscious yet again but his hold on her feet remained firm even in his unconscious state. And Neriah was made to remain in that seat until hours later his hold on her feet eventually loosened and Rakavi led Neriah back into her room to rest.
"Neriah," Rakavi calls her name and Neriah looks up at her with a tired yet expecting gaze.
"Do not worry too much, Barak will come to his senses and see that you are innocent just as Badhan and I do." Rakavi says and a smile crawls over Neriah's lips as Rakavi's words make her remember the only nice words her husband has said to her since she found him again… 'I give up. You win." He had said, so maybe Rakavi is right. Maybe he is finally ready to believe me. Is what Neriah's thinking.
"Thank you, mother." Neriah says and Rakavi nods and turns to walk out of the room only to turn around again.
