❝You said you will help me. How?❞

❝I shall help you get revenge.❞

❝Revenge? What — what kind of revenge?❞

❝The kind that will act as an ointment on your wounds. The kind that will heal your scars and ease your suffering.❞

❝Nothing can ease my suffering except death.❞

❝...❞

❝Wait ... do you mean ... d-death?❞

❝I think you know exactly what I mean. The question is, are you brave enough to do it?❞

❝No! No, I – I can't. It's wrong.❞

❝Who says that it is wrong?❞

❝Everybody. Everybody says that it's wrong and that you go to hell for doing it.❞

❝"Everybody" hasn't been through what you have been through. "Everybody" doesn't understand your pain.❞

❝And even if that was true and you could go to hell for it, surely even that is better than the life you are living.❞

❝So tell me, Calista, my love, my sunshine, are you brave enough?❞
