[She sighed. This wasn't what she had intended at all. She folded her hands together and took a step back.]

Perhaps I don't. I know I don't. I never wanted my stepmother to kill me, I only ever wanted her to love me and to see me as a daughter.

But you are putting a harsh fate on someone, Apple. And I'm a bit disappointed to hear that you don't care about her feelings on the matter.

[She moves to stand.] I've upset you, and I'm very sorry for that. I wonder though, if you would say the same thing if someone tried to force you to kill another, insisting it was your destiny as well.
