(Meggy's POV)
...Why did you leave..?
I know he doesn't hear it, but I ask anyway...
Why... did you leave..?
I heard it a thousand times over and over in my head...
"It'll get better"...
But... will it really?
"What happened happened okay?"
"It'll get better"...
It won't...
"Don't lie to yourself, Meggy"...
"It'll get better"...
"I-I lo-ve you M-Mari-o"...
"It'll get better"...
When..? When the fuck will it get better?-
I hear my door open, and look over to see Marie, hunched over with a blanket wrapped around her, walk into my room.
Marie: ...Why are... *yawn* you still awake?
Meggy: Shouldn't YOU be sleeping?
Marie: I just went to get...
Her eyes slowly close as she quickly opens them again.
Marie: A glass of water... and I heard you whispering...
Meggy: That's like your second glass. Just go to sleep!

Marie: What's... *yawn* happening this month?

Meggy: ...*sigh* Marie just... stay calm when I say this, alright?
Marie: O-oh... alright.
Meggy: Okay, so... you know that octopus dude that I'm training those agents to fight.

Marie: Wh-what? Meggy WHAT?!
Meggy: Calm down alright?-
Marie: I AM CALM. I-I am perfectly calm!
Meggy: Marie, everything is going to be fine, okay?
Marie: WELL YOU CERTAINLY DIDN'T ACT LIKE THAT A SECOND AGO!-
Meggy: Marie-
Marie: I'm calm!-
Meggy: Marie!-
Marie: S-stop, stop saying my name-
Meggy: AGENT 2! YOU'RE AFRAID OF A TINY ASS OCTOPUS?!
As Marie was about to speak, I see her stop herself as her eyes widen. Shit, I shouldn't have said anything-
Marie: Y-yeah, I am scared... Meggy, you don't know what he's capable of...
