"But that still begs the question: why?"
Trisha continued as she looked at Teren's eyes, trying to sympathize, trying to be the bigger person.
"At this night," she continued under the breaking dawn, "I've killed innocents. However, I wasn't forced nor was I threatened to do so. I'm aware that my actions will kill but I continued doing so. Is it because I'm furious?"
"If I'm right, are you trying to say that my actions have a cause too?"
Teren asked her without turning around to face her.
"Duh, who doesn't have a cause for their action?"
"Does that validate what I've done?"
To this, Trisha frankly replied:
"No, of course not."
Teren nodded but Trisha continued.
"You should be condemned for it. But that doesn't also mean that we should ignore the cause."
"... I see. You've matured in that short period of time."
Teren glanced at her which she smiled and nodded.
