His words washed over her like a torrent, her mind only barely aware of his physical actions as her eyes fell to her knees, pocked with burns as they were. Her fingers twitched, desperate to light up another and add to the menagerie as he conjured images and pretty sunsets and feelings in her mind. She bucked against them, not wishing to allow the pot she had lidded to boil over. "Live for myself." she repeated softly once he had said his full piece. Remi's words rang through her mind, a discordant echo that touched a place she did not wish to admit hurt.
Slowly she lifted her gaze, dark and disbelieving. "I am a woman who came her desperate for a boyfriend, who kept getting pregnant despite being an expert in fertility. I've had everything I wanted. There is nothing left. It is not precious. It is not unique. It has all meant nothing." she said, tone low. "Good is temporary. It is fleeting and fickle. It will always be replaced with pain and suffering and sorrow." she said, her words having a biting edge.
"And I am so, so tired of hurting and suffering. I have nothing left, and I am not worth living for alone. So there is simply nothing."
