@bulletsoverbensonhurstâ : â  what can i say to fix this ?  â
QUESTION STARTERS.   accepting !
â  I DUNNO.  â   she doesnât mean to be a brat;  she just genuinely doesnât know the answer.   he canât fix something he didnât even start.   her issues with luisa had been building and building for a long time  ââ  perhaps sal did interfere with them recently,  but it was a matter of time before things inevitably got to this point.
gaze staring off into nothing,  fingers absentmindedly playing with the pendant on her neck,  pat feels torn.   on one hand,  here is where she feels the most at home,  sitting on salâs couch while a black and white film neither of them pay attention to plays on the tv.   but on the other,  thereâs her mother;  flesh and blood should count for something,  right?   it feels like a betrayal to even be here after the confrontation from a few days ago.
â  i wanna ask you something,  â   she says.   â  but i donât want you to try to make me feel better.   i want you to tell me the truth.  â
