Valdis doesn't want to lie to Erin, but her feelings on everything are so complicated she's not even sure where they will land.
"I don't know, Erin. Part of me wanted to leave everything that happened on the Eterna behind. There was so much pain at the end. I was eager for a new start, a new life. I wanted another chance for happiness, and I don't know if my feelings are the same as they were. I need time to figure it out." She squeezes Erin again. "I still care for you."
