"so that's it?", she asked.

"what the fuck do you even expect me to do?", he said, yelling slightly.

"you're just going to give up?", she
asked, ignoring his comment.

"give up on what?! you? you gave up on me FIRST, let's not forget that, you fucking imbecile.", he yelled, slightly louder.

"fuck. you. gallagher. i don't want to see you again. if i'm that much of an imbecile, don't come near me again. you're incapable of love. i hope for the time that i had compassion for you i showed it enough and gave off an impression that i actually cared. don't expect me to come see you the next time you end up in juvie, you unlovable bastard.", she said, trying to stop the tears from gushing out. and then, she walked away.
