It had been hard enough to say it and, as she sat there and watched the woman in front of her react, it dawned on her how she might feel. Not for the first time, Anne wished she were able to feel again. Instead she placed a hand on the table and gave a half smile.
"I'm sorry. It was a very long time ago, comparatively, and the circumstances were complicated. Everything back then was complicated, to be honest. When isn't it?" Not sure what she had been trying to do, maybe reach out to Dite, Anne pulled her hand back and rested it in her lap as well. Again, "I'm sorry."
