“Love, he picked me up by my collar like I weighed nothing. He broke Lilliandil’s shoulder. Dearest, he’s not himself anymore…”
“No.” -shakes head in anger- “I must speak with him, he cannot continue to do these things. I know that he feels guilt. He has to. He always does.”
[shakes her head]
“I don’t think he does anymore. You could try…but I don’t think so…I brought up Lilli and he didn’t even twitch…”
-inhales sharply-
“I truly must speak with him. What he has done is unforgivable, but you must understand. Somedays, he knows not what he does, at least not while he commits the act. I knew I shouldn’t have gone away for work. I could have protected you. Both of you. I should have been here!”
