. If you hadn’t betrayed me, it probably wouldn’t have been enough.”Sonia ruffled Maya’s hair, and fed her some more, puzzled.“As a friend i... was my duty to try to help, but after you did that ... it was an act of grace.”Sonia nodded. It made a peculiar sense, weird as it was.“Then you should thank me, shouldn’t you?”“Um, I ... suppose?”“Now, don’t be ungrateful.
