leah proctor – Can You Bring Me The Gun of Rambo?

Your father demands contrition from everyone except himself.

As I get older, I have far less patience for arrogance disguised as righteousness.

…And yet I stay.

I was not raised to think there was another way.

By the time I came to it on my own, I was an old lady.

I failed you, Kai.

I let the dogma of small-minded men determine your fate when I should
have been protecting you…the way any other mother in the world would
have protected her young.

And now I see you in here, and I know that we put you here, your father and I.

Your crimes, whatever they may be, are my crimes.
