[ Back in Scotland, before ever seeing a crazy woman burn her husband to go back in time. ]
And here, I've asked you about the two of you, together, because seeing the way your eyes change when you say his name, mama, I can tell when you're thinking about him. Your entire face...I can't explain it.
[ It's not like anything she'd ever seen before, not really. ]
But now I want to know more about him. Just him. How I'm like him, what we both like, what he was good at, what his flaws were. Is that okay? I mean, is that really okay?
[ Because she doesn't want her to be sad, to miss him even more than she already does. ]
