Susan was always so wise and caring like a mother. She took care of everyone in the shelter. She never complained about anything on the island, or nothing in his memory. Susan was the perfect woman a man desired.

It wasn't that Susan had become selfish or indifferent to the needs of those around her; rather, it was as if she had adopted a more carefree and playful attitude, reminiscent of the youthful exuberance that had characterized Amelia's spirit.

And while Jude couldn't deny the allure of Susan's newfound zest for life, he couldn't help but feel a twinge of sadness for the woman she once was. Gone was the stoic caregiver who had borne the weight of their burdens with grace and dignity; in her place stood a woman transformed, her innocence restored and her spirit unshackled by the constraints of adulthood.
