004 – Dark
I won't pretend that everything's well and good. And I won't pretend that I'm not angry at you, even if I refuse to tell you why. After all the answer will make you upset, but pretty much anything can set you off these days, and that always gets me in a bad mood. I'm not sure why.
Maybe it's because you're angry, you're confused, and everything I say makes it worse. Every word out of my mouth is another reminder to you that I am alive and Alison is dead, that I'm related to her, that we both lived in the same house as her… whatever it is.
Maybe it's because every time I see you, it brings up memories of when your bones were covered in skin and sinew. When your eyes danced with laughter at the worst possible moments and you and Ali-Bali ganged up on me to get me to ride a horse.
Or maybe it's because now, I can't find any relation in you to that man at all.
