Her heart feels heavy, thudding with the weight of cooled lead.
Long moments pass as she struggles with her words, gauging how she can articulate what is filling her mind. There is so much, and it is all so hard to manage. In matters of business and the estate she can be calm and steady. Matters of the heart had felt natural as well, until what had come to pass with Demetria and Andry. Magni swallows past the uncomfortable lump in her throat.
“I don’t want you to be her.” Softly, that. Barely audible over the rain. “I loved her very much, but I don’t wish you to be like the one who... cast me aside and felt... lying, deceit and betrayal were the best ways to happiness.” An exhale, and she almost laughs st herself, a quiet huff of frustration. “That you think that... I am not good at speaking. I— lack that grace.”
There has clearly been a horrible, horrible misunderstanding.
