[Dirk had sat there for a long time wondering if he would get a response at all, but this was so important that he didn't look away from the place he was waiting for the words to appear.]
I guess I'm a bit mistrusting of others sometimes, because when someone says something like that to me I have a hard time believing it. I don't doubt his affections; I know he loves me and that he really would do all that he could for me. It's more that... I guess I lack that faith in myself. Which is really weird to actually admit, just so you know. I'm afraid something bad'll happen, too. Something I can't fix.
