Hurts? Work harder.
- If you think I'm over it you're terribly wrong. This is my self defence system. Hurts? Work harder.
- The way you act it's like nothing ever happened.
- Because it's easier. I spent a lot of time trying to make it go away. It didn't work so I started pretending it did and soon I got used to it. That's the scariest thing a human being can do... getting used to it.
- So you still miss him?
- Every night has his name on it. When my throat feels like it's closing up it's because I need that strenght he used to give me, especially now that everything's so fucked up.
- But then why didn't you reach for him?
- Because then I close my eyes and I picture him saying those things to me face to face... "Stupid girl... go to hell. Don't dare talk to me again." So I don't dare. Who knows how much his answer could hurt if I did...
- You don't need him.
- I never did. But yet I did. I never will. But yet I always will.
