"I don't know," Emily answered him honestly. Even if she wondered what might have been, she didn't really have an answer to her own questions. "I wouldn't have Bethie, so it's not like I.. regret my choices, you know?"
She wasn't even sure why she'd brought it up and now a part of her wished she could go back and prevent herself from asking the question out loud. It was stupid to even be talking about it. She didn't think either of them would choose differently even if they could. The past was in the past and that was exactly where it should stay. She knew that. She accepted that. So why had she even said anything.
