Amy did. She cared a lot. As he attacked her first with a pair of
scissors, then a screwdriver, she thought of how things could've been
different if she knew this is how they'd turn out.
If only we had been able to keep the baby. Things would've been different. We would still be together and none of this Shooter shit would've happened. God, I wish...
The look on his face when he found us... I would kill to have never seen that look on him. Ever. The intense pain and hurt and sensation of betrayal... It was all there. If I ever told him that it was the look on his face that hurt most, he'd probably say something like "Good! He would cry out at her. Good! Because you only had to see it! I had to wear it!" I wonder if he knew seeing it was almost as bad...
God, I feel like a total bitch! Maybe I should, but then... Maybe I shouldn't if he's gonna kill me with a screwdriver... Ted says I shouldn't, but it's Ted that started the divorce in the first place...
No. No, it wasn't. Morton had his own lover before I ever met Ted. His lover—his work—was much prettier than me; she was smarter than me, more fun... But I had always known about her. And she was always there. If I had only told him how I felt about her...
The only thing I want now is to—first off, get rid of the hideous hat and screwdriver—take him in my arms and tell him everything. Try to fix it. Kiss him and tell him I'm still in love with him. To forget about Ted and go back to how things were before... That's all I want...
God, those eyes! Those were the eyes of a man I still love. Those were the eyes I fell in love with so many years ago. The intensity of their brown gaze memorized me. But now... Now they scare the shit outta me. I have never seen this look before. The fir of insanity is blazing and I don't like it... At all.
These words were Amy's last thoughts before he brought the shovel down into her saying, "She had stolen his love, and a woman who would steal your love when your love was really all you had to give was not much of a woman. It was Shooter who hated her. It was Shooter who meant to kill her and then bury her down by the lake near Bump, where she would before long be a mystery to both of them..."
