[Another nod. She doesn't like these people who've brought her here, no matter how kind they seem. They interrupted her life, they took her from everything she knew and understood, and they're keeping her from her husband. It isn't fair.
Nadine wants to reach through the bars, wants to feel Flagg against her, wants his arms around her in the sort of assurance that only he can offer. But all she can do is grip his hand and focus on the heat and solid reality of him.]
I'm glad you're here, too. I don't know what I'd do without you. I never thought I'd have to go back to not feeling you but when I was brought here...they took everything I had. Everything.
[Whatever vague, conflicted feelings about him that Nadine may harbor, beneath it all, it doesn't matter. Flagg has been a part of her life, a part of her for nearly as long as she can clearly remember.]
