14 Chapter 14

Neo was overcome with mixed emotions when Zasari held her hand and shared memories Zasari had of her when she was a baby.

"How do you do that?" Neo asked while still holding onto Zasari's hands.

"I have the ability to share the memories that are stored in my mind" Zasari said, her voice was the softest Neo had ever heard from an adult. "And I made sure that the memories of you were stored safely," she added, sounding emotional. "They were all that kept sane."

"I always thought that I would swear at my biological parents for giving me up should I find them," Neo said. "Yet I can't do that now because a part of me feels complete." She looked into Zasari's eyes. "My land family love me and I love them but there has always been a part of me that felt this...this void." She put her hand on her chest where her heart beat strong. "I feel the void fill when I am with you, and a part of me feels guilty for it. I feel like I'm betraying the people who raised me," she confessed.
