I don't want there to be any secrets between us.

[Tifa never wanted there to be, but she could never work up the courage to tell him all of this. Not until he finally asked, and even now, she felt hesitant, but not anymore... She has no reason to fear what might come out of telling him because no matter how afraid she is, the fact that she trusts him unconditionally, without question, should be the most important reason to share her life, her past, everything about her with him.

Especially now that they have devoted their lives to one another. Now that she's promised herself to him...]

I just... I wanted you to know me for me... Not because of the things I did or who I was before we met... Avalanche, the bombings, Shinra...

[Coming to a new world was like a new start for her. The chance to build a life without the strings of Avalanche or Shinra attached to it, and she knows she could never run from it or forget it because all of it is what made her as resilient and strong as she is today, but...]

I know it's important now, though. Just like your life before all this is to me... It's who you are. Who I am.
