I didn't plan on telling Raya anything about what I did to Lawson. Not that I planned on not telling her. There wasn't a plan at all, I just… I just knew I needed to see her and be in her presence.
And this is why. Raya is somehow able to make the worst seem like it's nothing to be concerned about at all—like it's silly to think it's bad. How does she do that? How can she take the secret evil that I've been carrying inside so heavy and painful for fifteen hours now and make it seem like it's… normal?
I'm stunned. I'm stunned until she moves against me again, tilting her hips up and urging me to release this darkness into her so she can burn it away with her light.
