In this moment, Lysander felt a deep pang of sympathy for Thalassa. Thalassa hadn't done anything wrong, yet people always seemed eager to pin every blame on her shoulders. She was made to carry all the responsibility and the brunt of their accusations. Whether she was innocent or not, they never bothered to find out. Thalassa didn’t deserve this burden; she hadn’t done anything to warrant such weight. She could see the tenderness in Lysander’s eyes, and knowing he understood was enough for her. She grasped Lysander’s hand, her voice soft, “Your words mean everything to me.”
She had no illusions about others understanding her; as long as Lysander did, as long as he cared, it was more than enough. The greatest misfortune in life is when those you care about don’t reciprocate, and those you wish would understand you simply don’t. But the greatest fortune is when those important to you care back; not only do they care, but they go out of their way for you. Even if the whole world fails to understand you, having that one person who deeply gets you is enough to stand against the world. In this moment, Thalassa felt that fortunate sense of being understood, feeling a surge of strength within her.
“Let’s go grab some dinner, we’ve had a long day, time to treat ourselves,” Thalassa said cheerfully, still holding Lysander’s hand.
“Yeah,” Lysander agreed.
As they sat down to eat, Lysander suddenly mentioned, “This Saturday, we could visit the kids at school.”
