[She says it so instantly, even though it, like any other feeling, is one that she's only distantly familiar with. Having never been the recipient of it herself, Andrew knows that what she feels as love might not be what other people experience, and yet she cannot conceive of it in any other way.]
I...simply hope that she remembers what I did for her as love. I asked that she return my love in exchange for helping her see her mother. [Herta doesn't even know the plan; she's kept her in the dark for her safety, so her heart doesn't hurt.] ...I suppose it was childish of me.
