Unfortunately, she was about to cross into uncomfortable territory. Double unfortunately, Gin threw her off by saying that he wanted to take her home with him. Yoka was not entirely certain where his home was. She was not entirely certain if she wanted to leave this island--this was home for her. Yoka wasn't looking for salvation. She was looking for eternity. Eternity here.
"It can't be that simple," Yoka said. Her voice stilled. It chilled, too, as though a breeze from outside got trapped in her words. "If it were that simple, you wouldn't have left."
She didn't know if she wanted to know.
She asked a different question instead.
"What is your home like?"
