If only he had seen Elsa’s true face earlier. If only he had trusted Lily a little more, cared for her a little better… things would never have come to this.

“John, you can’t treat me this way…”

“Those gifts, those things–you gave them to me. I don’t have that kind of money, I can’t possibly-”

“Pay it back.”

John’s eyes cut through her like knives, void of pity, void of mercy–only a coldness that froze to the marrow.

“John, you can’t… you can’t do this to me…”
