[It's the disconnect between what one knows academically and realistically, the space between two ideals that you're left in when neither has the appropriate answer for your situation. He doesn't have to grip his tattoo because, trailing slightly behind him, her palm eases over it, moving or not.]
... No matter what it ends up being, I love you.
[The part of her that is separate of being, well, whatever anyone wants to call it these days- Alpha Bitch, as Emily has coined or Team Mom as Audrey is more likely to say - leans towards the idea that a part of him might not be able to accept this kid in the same way. But sometimes if you're allowed to be angry or feel a certain way about it, then it leaves your system in its own time. Ultimately, she could never imagine Masaomi allowing any harm to come to a child, and she's the mother here - it's not his job to make this kid feel loved or appreciated, but hers.
So everything will be fine, somehow. Maybe that's what she's trying to say here.]
