Dionne barely knew how to ride a horse.
She was painfully aware of this.
She didn't even know her way back.
Nevertheless, she had to leave. She couldn't burden him any longer, couldn't impose. She would have done anything to care for him for just a few days longer, but honestly, Lua probably thought she was dead at this rate.
The money was a dead weight in her pocket. She feared it'd dig her deep beneath the ground and bury her in her guilt.
Maybe if I had been better.
The phrase had been turned over in her mind countless times over the course of her life. It made a reappearance as she tried to recount the way back to Os Kervo.
Maybe if I tried harder.
On she rode, trying not to think of all the things she could have done differently. Maybe he would want her if she had done a little more. Maybe if she was better at cooking. Or if she was better at singing. Maybe if she was prettier.
Maybe if I had been better.
