He leaned her back against the tub, setting her head on the edge, then washed her shoulders. I know I left you once.She opened her mouth, wanting to say it didn't matter, it was forgotten. But it wasn't. I know I hurt you.Again, she wanted to argue. But she couldn't. I know I said I won't leave you again, but I also know that's not enough, and that the only way you're going to trust that I won't leave is if I don't. He slid the cloth over her arms. If this ends, Hope, it won't be me that ends it. I think you know that.
