We sit for a long time in silence. After what we just learned, the quiet should feel oppressive, but it’s not. I’m not happy, but sitting next to Finn makes me feel slightly more in control, a little more capable of handling everything that’s about to come our way.

I’m too drained and Ally would want explanations and honestly...I don’t think I fully understand all of this enough to explain it.
Or maybe I just don’t want to. Wha
