Lara:
"You need to understand that I can sense your energy, and I can tell that you're not very trustworthy."
Her words made me hug myself, rubbing my arms up and down as I began to wonder if she could also tell that I was the one who had killed her children and not them.
Or maybe it was just about the energy. She said she could sense it.
"I hope you know, trust is not something that can be bought," she added.
I nodded in understanding.
"I know it is not easy to trust someone, but you can trust me. Together we need to bring them down. They cannot steal everything from us and go on living their lives."
I started to cry, sniffling harder this time. These were genuine tears.
"I can give you extra power to fight those who have wronged you."
Her words made my ears perk up.
"That will do. Please give me more power. I want to ruin them," I said, gulping every time she spoke.
