I've heard that there are many distressed women here. You saved her because she's somewhat attractive. She also has a child, so if you get involved with her, you'll have to be a stepfather.

I helped her because her husband was Birkhamese and had helped us. That's all." Nina, already fuming, shook off his hand and said coldly, "Why are you explaining this to me? We're divorced. Your business doesn't interest me." Nash's hand grabbed at nothing but air. In his desperation, he forgot they were divorced, letting his emotions override his principles.

Ask yourself why you're explaining things to me! The best thing for us is to stay out of each other's lives completely. I don't want to be where you're around!" She was practically yelling, desperate to vent her frustrations. She could see he cared, but he always retreated, torturing her with his mixed signals. With her emotions surging, her eyes reddened, and her breathing grew heavy.
