She talks, and…I get it. It still don't make sense, but I get it. I get what she sees.
It hurts her so much when somethin's out of place or broken. She'll stay up all night fixin' her machines like Momma stayed up with me when I was a kid and got sick.
And now she can't see nothin' but broken things. Broken things everywhere…
And he did it. He-she-it-whatever it is, the thing in the Tower.
I want to hit him. I want to cry. I want to be sick. I want to hate the part of me that thinks but she can see so much! She can see into things
And I want to hug Zann. I pull her head onto my shoulder and smooth down her hair and try to stop snifflin' 'cause Zann don't need me cryin' on her…
"Oh honey," I whisper. "Oh, I'm sorry. It's the worst thing anyone could do to you. Oh honey, I'm sorry…"
