Motif couldn't help but smile wryly at Rhy's words, she had thought she heard a maternal longing in her tone when she had asked to say goodbye to Motif's unborn children, but perhaps she did not want children of her own, even as she wanted children to look after. She furrowed her brow at that strange thought, before moving on. She was certain she wouldn't change her mind about Shai and the children, she felt it in her heart that she needed to do this to live her life. Perhaps one day, when she was truly ready to have children she would regret it, but she would regret it more and now if she kept them.



?I'm sorry Rhy, and thank you? she whispered back, pulling her sister close and holding her, nuzzling her head gently into the crock of Rhy's familiar and warm neck. She breathed in the scent of family and comfort and drew strength from that. She never wanted to hurt Rhythm, but perhaps even in this stupid pregnancy she would do that, this pregnancy was destined to ruin everything, wasn't it?
