Francesca: You don't understand. Don't you see? Nobody understands when a woman makes a choice to marry and have children, in one way, her life begins, but in another way, it stops. You build a life of details and you just stop and stay steady so that your children can move and when they leave, they take your life of details with them. You're expected to move on again, but you don't even remember what it was that moved you because nobody's asked you in so long, not even yourself.
[takes deep breath]
Francesca: But you never think... you never think love like this is going to happen to you.
Robert Kincaid: But now that you have it...
Francesca: Ah! Now what I want to keep it forever. I want to love you the way I do now for the rest of my life, but... if we leave, we lose it. And I can't make an entire life disappear to start a new one. All I can do is try to hold on to both of us somewhere inside of me. You have to help me.
[She walks upto Robert and hugs him]
