Summary
Cardinal Tremblay believed that this was his time to leave, and he took his leave with a brief: “Je t’aime tellement, tellement je ne peux pas oublier, je voulais que tu saches, Lapland.” ‘I love you so much, so much that I can’t forget, I wanted you to know, bunny.’ The French woman condemned the way he chose to do that, always an eternal child who didn’t know how to mature. He couldn’t forget her that easily.
She gave a weak smile, matching the appreciative look he'd given her since he got there. “Ça va passer.” ‘This will pass.’ She would say this and perhaps wouldn't follow her own advice, but she left it there when she heard Lawrence's gentle voice looking for her from afar. She would recognize his heavy footsteps from a distance. Her worry made him stiff, and she would be grateful for that right now, because now she had a home to return to. Her house was next door to him, and he called her like a worried wife. That was when she knew she had to return and comfort him. That was what moving forward meant.
