"That the boy?"
"Bernice! I told you we can't discuss this here. Marya is too smart for her own good. She'll hear it or find out-"
"And that can't happen."
"No! It cannot."
"Shouldn't she know that you're talking to her man?"
"No. Because I hardly know anything myself. If I tell her she'll ask for answers. When I can't provide them, she'll go looking for those answers and get herself killed or arrested."
"So, you'll just keep going behind her back."
"It's fine. He hung up on me."
"Don't give me that look."
"Maybe she'll get over it."
"I hope so."
"She won't."
"How would you know?"
"I'm not over Tobias and you aren't over Jared. We've been blessed or cursed, depending on how you look at it, to love deeply and truly."
"She'll find a way to get by."
"What makes you so sure?"
"Because she has to."
