Her eyes bounced up when he said that, her expression clear with disbelief - not that she thought he was lying, but that she didn't understand. "What do you mean, what happened?" She pulled in a deep breath, then another.
It was fucked up, but when he said that - when he said that he wasn't going to hurt her, she believed him. She believed him, because even in the end he'd never been the sort of man who would lie to her. Not about this, he'd tell her, he'd tell her what he had to do, she knew he would. She just didn't know how it was going to happen, but what he said--
There was hope, maybe, but there was also so much confusion. "I- I don't understand." She was standing in his living room with toys littering the couch, watching him in the kitchen, and nothing made sense anymore. "I've gone crazy. I just- I lost it, I must have." She shook her head as she bit her lip. She was shaking with exhaustion and stress, but she took a deep breath as she tried to speak evenly. "This can't be real."
