Mable heard his words. So many times she wanted to give up and leave. She had her bags packed. After the alien things had almost killed her. She was ready to just leave as she had been left. She didn't. She stayed, healed and grew.
Her hand touched her heart. "You don't know what your words do for me. The universe is vast and we are but dots moving through it. I have so much to learn and experience. I can't do it if I keep running. So I will be here for a while. I hope you will be also."
