When she had first comforted Karkat after the death of his father, she knew she had done a terrible job. Kanaya was always there for him, so she couldn't do that much damage, but the words she said still haunted her. "I can't imagine how it feels to lose a parent, but I'm sorry."
How lame did that sound? Like it came straight off an old Hallmark card. Gross. Surely, she could do better than that when it came to comforting an old friend?
But the simple truth was this; she had no way of understanding his pain, and thus could not properly help.
It was cruel karma that brought Karkat around to tell her that her mom is a murderer, and now she understood entirely. Her mother was still alive and healthy, but she was dead to Feferi.
A/N: Thank you all so much for reading. Every view, like, and comment has meant so much to me, and I hope this story had a satisfying ending that will keep you all interested enough to see the sequel, which will come in a few weeks. Everything I post here will be a re-upload from my AO3 account of the same name. Now, onto reviews.
UnknownUserFound, I'm glad you enjoyed the story! Thank you so much for your reviews.
DetectiveKyle, would you believe it? The title for that chapter is Ms. Paint: Certified Badass. I was just too lazy to switch the chapter names and stuck with the plain number just cause.
Until next time, everyone~
