“Whose funeral did ole man Henty go to?” Steve asked. “His mother's,” Billy said. “His mother?” Jackie Talbot said, stunned. “Jesus Christ, she musta been older'n God.”
I'm not really sure how I could describe Billy or how to feel about him. He's just horrible and surely full of traumas.
It's a little interesting since he seems to have fallen in love with Chris, and really wishes to protect her and whatnot. He'd do anything for her. Why though?
Chris is very hateful, despicable and envious. Is Billy drawn to that and the fact that she's only vulnerable when she's with him?
The kind of baggage that they both seem to be carrying looks very heavy.
Poor things…
