Souda's response to the question of whether or not she should let go of Darnay's hand is that she is glad to be able to do so. She is so close to saying her answer that she can feel her heart, but her fingers are trembling. She waits for Darnay to come out of his hand, but he does not. She says that maybe he is just "child hood" and she fell in love with him. She feels that she would never do such a thing
