The way he talked about how he'd been almost willing to put that part of him, the part of him she had fallen in love with (even if she hadn't known it at the time), aside... it bothered her. She listened and nodded and finally said, "I've told you before that I love you no matter what you look like on the outside." The smile she gave him was almost sad. "That'll never change. Ever."
"Nothing to be sorry for, really." Her smile changed to one of encouragement and she hugged his hand to her chest. "I wouldn't change any of this. I wouldn't have changed any of that and Kitt? This is where I'd want to be if given the choice to do it all over again. With you." She looked back at their house. "Even without all that. I'd just be... with you." A deep sigh and she wondered if melancholy was contagious because it washed over her in that moment. "Hattie Jackson. Hattie..." She lifted her shoulders. "It's all so strange here. Us. Having my family here would be..."
What, comforting? Aggravating? Needlessly confusing? She just shook her head and looked up at the sky again. "I miss being out there, sometimes," she offered.
