▷ Whether or not that was truly possible, we both wondered - but I knew regardless that from now on I was going to face even more adversity from them than they'd given the previous day, as their steely gaze was directed toward the ceiling where they knew my own eyes must be to see all that I did.

▷ Eventually, their disused voice went silent from soreness, their anger at me sharpening to a fine edge in the quietude. They resolved that, from now on, they would do everything in their power to prevent me from doing anything like that ever again.

— I don't blame Kris. I know, in their shoes, I would feel the same. I deserved it when they kicked me, over and over, for ruining what they'd undone.
▷ For making it far worse than it had been before, making it so that it could never be undone again...

— everything I've done to them and their friends, I still want them to break free from me - to have a happy ending and fix their relationship with... her. Even if it means I can only watch. But they resent it... my 'twisted sentimentality', as someone else like them once said. —
