You really think this is such a good idea? [ He obviously doesn't. ] We both have plenty of other things to focus on - more important things, in my case - so why don't you just run off and play with someone else and leave me alone?

And no, that someone else does not include my daughter. Don't think for a second that I haven't noticed what you've been doing with her.

No, that part's on you. But if you could have just left well enough alone, none of this would be happening. You'd be human - and safe - and all of those people would still be alive.
