she must have known what we’d have to face in case she left and yet she still fled she couldn’t care less about us

EMMA : I think she just couldn’t have coped with yet another day here that’s all

MAX : the next morning edgar was expecting the black car to appear in front of the house he was expecting to hear the pounding on the door he was expecting to be summoned to the police but nothing happened and there was nothing the next morning and the morning after and then the morning came when I was standing by the window and saw endless streams of

the bullets left holes in walls and in people
