curiosity killed the cat . satisfaction brought it back
"Enough."
Ada watched Tembovu and listened quietly as he began to talk about the injustices that he'd faced. How he was tired of everything that had molded and shaped him into what he was now. The vengeance, the fury, anger, guilt, and a plethora of other things that she knew he had to be feeling because she'd felt them herself. She wanted to tell him to change if he hated what his vengeance had turned him into. She wanted to tell him that he got his revenge, that it was time to stop letting the anger rule his life and dictate his every moment.
Ada. Build a home, a family."
"I had a family in Dorobo, too." She said, ignoring his plea to build the Edge with him for the moment. "The murdered my father. They slaughtered my mother and my tribe. They killed my mate, and ... I was forced to bury my child, too." Her voice had fallen to a whisper. "I know what it is to want to taste vengeance. I know revenge. I know anger." She said. "I've spent so long not wanting to think about it or talk about it and getting angry about it every time it was brought up, but I learned." At that point she didn't care if Tembovu was still listening to her or if he had begun ignoring her when she didn't readily agree with him.
"I learned that until you're able to forgive all the horrible things that have been done to you you'll never be able to forgive yourself for your failures and downfalls." She stared openly at Tembovu as she spoke, her golden eyes shining with conviction. Papa Echo, for all his strange ways had helped to heal Ada both physically and spiritually, though both had taken a great deal of time. "Forgiveness is what heals the soul and eases the ghosts and demons." It was strange, telling Tembovu what the old man had told her over and over again in Dorobo, but she felt as though he needed to hear it because she didn't think he'd ever healed his wounds. She felt as though he'd just let them fester and spread infection and that infection was changing him. "And you need to forgive and love yourself like..."like I do She murmured.
