"Letty-

"No, Dom. It's my turn to speak." She said cutting him off. He leaned back against the car hood, resuming the position he once sat at with Brian a few minutes earlier.

"I've been trying to decide for the longest time what to do. You've been trying so hard to make me happy, and get my memories to come back. But I hate to break it to you Dominic, but that isn't going to happen. Why can't you just move on? I'll never be the Letty I was… your Letty. You're unhappy, constantly having to force yourself to care about me and try extra hard to force on me memories that didn't even really mean that much to you." Dom tried to interrupt, just to be shot back down, "Don't start! I can tell you have feelings for her, the way you looked at her, the way you talk about her, she makes you happy…. I want that for you, I want that for my sister that I just found out I have, I have two of. You and my family being happy is all I want. So I can't stand here and make both unhappy by trying to get these memories back, when they aren't ever coming back." Dom didn't know what to say, "She calms you, I can tell. When you are near her you calm, even when you two were having a screaming match, your body was at ease. Whereas when I'm near you, even just standing here, or being intimate with you, you have to force yourself and over think calming down and not being tense all the time. I just want this all to be easier. I'm still here for you, but I don't think I can be there for you the way I was. I want you to try and fix whatever magical thing you had with Royce… okay?" She stopped and turned to leave the garage before stopping and smiling at him.

"And that wasn't a question." She laughed with a smile before walking back to the house to give him space to think.

Dom didn't know what to think…. No he was completely lost… should he go after Royce after all these years? Maybe. Would she be there when he got there? Probably not. Did she want him there? No. Would any of this really make a difference? He didn't know the answer to that one. But he did know the answer to the most important question. If I could go back and do it differently, would I?

Yes.
