Sally hesitated momentarily before asking, "What do you think is true freedom?"

Mag contemplated her question for a short while before replying, "I think freedom is the right to choose. Everyone has different opinions and perspectives, but for me, I think I have freedom as long as I have the right of choice."

They didn't even have a choice to stay or leave.
