NATE
Well at least they agree on something. The tears do make her look weak, Nate’s face softening with surprise before he hardens again, disappointment writ on his sharp features. “I expect you to look around and think Seren.” Nate’s words are even, as if he’s rubbing his sudden control of his emotions in her weeping face. “I expect you to understand that if you sit in front of someone and tell them you’re against their very existence they won’t be nice to you.” He rises to his full height again, the shoulders of his shirt sticking to his skin where sun blisters have burst underneath it. “I expect you to recognize that you have the same fucking choice I do, and you chose the side that wants to commit genocide.”
There is only one thing that passes through Nate’s mind he watches as Seren withdraw into herself, then force herself to stand tall, to address him again. God, he thinks, you really are your mothers daughter. The manipulation, the twisting of his words, the way that no matter what he says, she’s decided he’s the bad guy, instead of someone who simply wants live.
Fine.
“I want nothing to do with you because you’ve just proven you don’t see me as deserving of life. Not even enough to stop and think.” Nate opens the door behind him, stepping into the frame and haunting it while he watches the star child leave, hopefully to never return and darken his doorstep again. He’s getting a little tired of having these conversations on the porch.
