“Have you not searched your entire life for someone who belongs only to you?” I ask quietly.

She blinks.

“Have you not waited?”

Still, she says nothing.

Her lips part.

Eyes widen.

An ugly emotion rises inside me.

Jealousy.

Territorial and vicious.

“Or is there another?” I ask carefully. “A suitor, perhaps? Someone I must best?”

“No! No, I haven't dated anyone in forever.”

Relief floods me.

Instant and complete.

“Good.”

She stares.

Then snorts.

“Good?”

She laughs nervously.

“But that isn't the point. Why would you even be interested in me?”

I blink.

The question makes no sense.

“Why wouldn't I be?”

She gestures helplessly to herself.
