Petra felt she was answering in all the right ways, certainly she was answering his questions fully and she had nothing else to compare this situation to. She'd never really been interviewed before. Her confidence was steadily growing as they moved through the questions and then quite suddenly he changed tact and her nerves seized upon her again. Was this a good sign or a bad sign?
After a moment of hesitation as she tried to figure out what he hoped to do with the information she gave him, she answered. "They did, yes." The feelings that came with trying to remember what they'd erased grew stronger and made her wonder if he was about to enlighten her as to why she felt so many negative things. Fear and panic she could understand - it had been some sort of horrible incident after all - but the other feelings she couldn't explain. What if he could and it was worse than she had imagined? Did she even want to know?
Yes, she did want to know but that didn't mean she relished that moment when she might regain her memories.
