12. Insanity
“Why are you doing this?”
She laughed, though it sounded strange. “You said so yourself, right? That I’m insane, and needed to be here?”
He remained impassive. “…You know I didn’t mean it –“
“Oh sure you didn’t!” she snapped, but laughed once more.
Then he slammed the door. She heard the door lock, and him swearing. But she didn’t care. This was how things ended anyway.
They called her insane from the beginning. But now, after she’d committed so many crimes, they have the courage to lock her up?
She laughed sourly all night long in her new home.
