Short summary: Liliana reminds herself that Aluche has chosen her over all other potential choices.
Liliana had been so happy to reunite with Aluche, even if she knew it was only going to be for a short time. And then that happened and the “short time” because, well… It was both short and long. Just like how it feels like being with Aluche. In some ways it feels like no time has passed since they were together in school. Aluche acts basically the same as she did as a student and the two of them easily fall into the same rhythm, the same comfortable topics from sweets to flowers to books to Rue. In some ways it feels like too much time has passed. Because Aluche has made these new connections, has these shared histories with people that Liliana doesn’t know. And Liliana has found out that she’s the easily envious type. She wants to know everything that Aluche knows, wants to know about all of Aluche’s experiences with other people.
It's selfish for sure, but Aluche being a pure sweetheart doesn’t seem to even notice or mind. Then again that’s probably why everyone likes Aluche. Liliana is sure everyone could form a more romantic affection towards Aluche if the timing and conditions were right, except maybe for Arnice who has her own person she is devoted to. Muveil, Veruschka, Camille… And of course Liliana knows Rue has feelings for Aluche, but…
Aluche has chosen Liliana. Aluche can’t help if everyone becomes fond of her, if everyone loves her. She can help who she spends her time with, who she reaches out to when a choice has to be made. So Liliana tamps down on her jealousy and remembers that Aluche loves her the most.
