My mother is unfazed. “Two, ye need to tell Persephone how ye feel. Do it today. Ye don’t realize it yet, but life is short and brutal. When ye have a person to share yer burdens and triumphs with, ye cling to that person and keep them as close as ye can for as long as ye can.”
Her eyes unexpectedly fill with tears as she wags her finger at me. “Tell her ye love her tonight.”
I frown at her, uncomfortable with her sincerity.
“Stop giving me advice.”
“Fine.” Magda shakes her head. “I’ll grab Diana and ask her to finish cleaning and suturing yer wounds. I have to go find Ares and convince him to come in and let me look at his wounds. But in the meantime, I hope ye’ll think about what I’ve told ye.”
I sit back down, staring at her stonily. She rolls her eyes at me as she heads out of the exam room.
But her words still ring clearly in my head.
