I don't understand what he's saying, that he loved Ares but Ares left him. None of it makes sense, so I dismiss it.
"I ain't like her," he says with such conviction that my eyebrow raises. "Why would he do that? Someone must've done it. He wouldn't do that." Something I've told myself plenty since I woke up in pain. The corners of my lips twitch, like I'm trying to smile even though there's no reason in the world.
"He told us he was leaving." It's all I can say. He didn't say how. He didn't say he'd do this, leaving me to wonder if I'll ever see him again. He gave me hope, damn him.
