Gemini pulled up short. She hadn't expected that reaction, and certainly not the sentiment that followed. "I- I apologize, Shail, I did not realize you felt so strongly about the matter. But I would much rather grow old and die with you than live on without you. It is so painful to watch a loved one die and know that you will go eternity without ever seeing them again..." She stepped in front of him, facing him directly. "Please do not say that! We have barely even begun to try, we cannot give up so easily. I believe we were meant to find each other, Shail. With everything that has already happened... unless... you do not feel the same? You regret choosing me? Could it be that my feelings for you... do you not return them?" She stepped back, fighting tears that gathered at the corners of her vision.
