   Summary

   “You feel fulfilled?” she asked him, skeptical.

   Alexei grabbed at his gut and gave her a toothy smile. “So full. So filled,” he said. He was telling the truth. Then his eyebrows scrunched back together as he asked her, “But what brings you here?”

   Yelena hesitated to answer, as she felt that Alexei had no true concept of the complexity of his own question. “There is something wrong with me," she replied, eyes fixated on her fidgeting hands, hands that shed enough blood to fill the Pacific. “I cannot help but feel… unfulfilled.”
