What was there to worry about, to be afraid of, and to avoid?
Why should I endure and suffer when others hurt me?

"So why... are you looking at me like that?" Scarlett Glenn asked again.
Mrs. Herd glanced at Ethan Herd: "I... last night I saw you being carried away by my son, and I couldn't save you. I... I'm feeling guilty!"
Scarlett Glenn laughed, "Are you still worried about that? The two of us... who took advantage of whom is still uncertain."
