Kindle Notes & Highlights
“You left your best friend buried in the woods, a mere hundred yards from the house you lived in, after your boyfriend cut her up into pieces.”
Children are innocent. They’re small. They can’t defend themselves against predators. They’ve done nothing to warrant any violence against them. Bad things aren’t supposed to happen to kids. It goes against everything we as a civilized society think is acceptable. Your protective instincts kick in.”
Because buried things can, and do, come back.
It was so easy to mistake control for love, to believe he was upset because he cared, that he was protective because he loved her so goddamn much.
