She snorts. Right to the point as ever—oh yeah, she's fucked. She's totally fucked.
"Yeah. Yeah that's better." Her voice is still thick and she has to pause and cough again, scrubbing her face with the butt of her hand. "And he'll live better without me to worry about, anyway. We've always been... dysfunctional."
She rolls her eyes at herself—that's a gentle way to put it. She's never been good for him, she never made anything easier for him in any way that matters, she let so much fall on his shoulders because she was trying so hard to be the opposite of him. To be her own person.
"M'glad he can maybe have the life he shoulda had, if we ever get outta here. He's got York and Theta and the others. H-He deserves that, after... after..."
Her breathing quickens and she bites her tongue again, tasting iron this time. She wills herself to calm down but it's too fucking late, first there's more tears and then there's sobbing as the guilt slams into her like a tidal wave.
"Fuck." This is pathetic. This is so fucking pathetic.
