Neema eventually, after a few moments, broke away, but she smile up at Enzi. She snuggled close to him, almost forgetting what she had yelled at him.
Almost.
A fresh wave of guilt washed over her. It was her own thoughts of her parents that had sent her into the rage- why had she blamed Enzi for it? Although she hadn't directly accused him, shouting at him hadn't been much better. Shame churned in her stomach and she looked away from Enzi, inhaling tremulously. Had she hurt Enzi's feelings? Considering what she had said, it was likely.
Would the guilt for what she had said, every mistake she had ever made in her life, every little time she stood out of line, ever go away?
She didn't think it would.
