A huff of laughter. Bitter, broken, furious. Why won't she talk to him? It's like he's conveniently forgotten the huge secret he'd kept from her. Like he'd forgotten the fact he killed her brother. It's fucked up. It's ridiculous, and exactly the kind of bullshit Nadia should have expected. " are you fucking kidding me, Steve? " another broken laugh. . . voice breaking this time. " Why am I- ? " she breaks off, a sob ripping from vocal cords that are sore from screaming. from fighting. from hoping this was all some kind of nightmare she'd wake up from any moment now. " You don't get to play 'mr nice guy' anymore- " she snaps, a sharp intake of breath as her breathing hitches, fighting back another sob, hands wiping angrily at red rimmed eyes. " . . . so drop the fucking act. " her jaw trembles, hands shake by her sides. anger. grief. heartbreak. she doesn't even know anymore. " I fucking- I trusted you. Do you get that? I fucking trusted you and you just- you- " god she can barely speak. A stuttering inhale, almost a hiccup, followed by a jerky rise of her chest. " you killed him. " quieter now, features crumpling as she stares him at him with a mixture of hatred and anguish.
