“ how about some ice cream? “ @wanlidas for beth.
‘ i’m not a kid. ice cream’s not going to fix anything. ’ she shouldn’t feel so guilty about this; annie knows firsthand that boomer was a horrible person, someone the world was better off without. she should be glad he’s gone, but she can’t stop thinking about marion. how lonely she’d be from now on, how devastated she’d be when she found out he’d never be coming back. spending time with her doesn’t even feel like an option, not when she’s sure she’d spend every second thinking about how she knows the truth, thinking about the voicemails marion had left on boomer’s phone, the way she began to sound more and more worried with each call.
beth was right; she shouldn’t have listened to any of them. ‘ i guess ice cream won’t hurt. ’
