I lost everyone I cared about. I have tried writing to Nems but he won't reply to my owls... All I have left is Dylan. He understands, but he won't be here to keep me company or protect me much longer. He will leave and I will be alone again," she rambled pointlessly.
"I am a bad person, Sabel... I hurt people... all the time. I am tired of being hurt too though. I get hurt by everyone. That is why I am sticking with my brother, I need no one else really..." She tried to wiggle free from his grip to wipe the tears from her face. "Lexi...shhhh..." He didn't let her go, but simply rocked her. She wanted to be alone, to hide and whither away to nothing. He wouldn't let that happen, he wouldn't just abandon her, let her believe she was truly alone. "You aren't alone. There are many people that love you. And while Dylan might move away, he will always be there. If you were a bad person, things wouldn't be so." He rubbed her back a bit more. "As for your parents, they don't speak the truth. Don't listen to them and don't let it influence you. You are a beautiful, wonderful young woman. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise."
