"I love him. I know he loves me. But--but there's always the wonder. Do you see? If she's right and I'm not enough, and what if his wife was. Not because it's true or likely. Just because...it's there, anyway. Fear rarely stopped me, but it's still there. And--and if it were true, if he deserved someone better really truly, I'd want him to find her. I don't really think it's true. But it doesn't make me feel better," looking down again, "or stop wondering a little. Or stop feeling like I'm loving someone else's husband," with a quiet laugh, "even if he's to be mine soon, too."
