I am inclined to trust you. You shouldnt be like that with another man, not ever; but I cant help it. I felt it strongly from the instant I heard your voice; and though I thought momentarily that it would falter, it didnt. Its still here. You see, the essence of trust is not knowing a persons motive; its knowing what isnt. Its a simple process of trial and error that gets you to the heart of a man; and once that soft voice and those light feet of yours got to moving I saw in you no measure of ill intent.
