“Becca! What-why did bạn do that?!”
Becca crossed her arms, huffed, and turned to the window. Willow sat on her giường as she watched one of her best Những người bạn stare out the window.
“I'm very territorial, Willow. When I get it in my head that I have something-whether it's a friend hoặc a material possession- I get very...aggressive. When bạn told me Wally broke your heart, I Mất tích it. I've spent my whole life protecting people that I forgot all about my own problems.”
“You think I belong to you?”
“You're my friend, Willow. Everything you've done has a permanent effect on me. So I think of bạn as my friend; which makes me territorial.”
“We are Những người bạn Becca. But bạn can't beat people.”
“I know. I know. My mind just reacted.”
“With all that hate?”
Becca huffed and walked around mindlessly. She picked up several items before looking at a picture Becca remembered taking. It was the first time Wally and Willow had kissed. She was surprised her friend still had this.
“Do bạn remember what Wally told bạn the ngày bạn two kissed?”
“Of course.”
“So do I. bạn guys didn't know I was there but I heard everything. He told bạn how much he loved you. Loved everything about you.”
“I remember.”
“Hm. Well, he obviously didn't mean it. Because then he would have loved how secretive bạn are. How blinded and shielded your past is from others. Part of me wants to stay bởi your side and keep bạn away from everything horrible in the world. The other part wants to beat the truth into Wally. That's why my mind reacted. I've been hurt too Willow. I have a forbidden past too. I respect bạn because bạn respect me. I came here to save myself. I still have information but I dare not release it.”
“Why not?”
“...I've been observing everything that happens on this team. And it appears that bạn may have a mole.”
“You hear that from Sports Master?”
“No. I told you; I observed bạn all. I'm a watcher bạn could say. A guardian. But I'm not here to babysit anyone. I've only been observing. And, from all that I've seen, bạn have a mole.”
“That wasn't a real thing. He đã đưa ý kiến that to tear us all apart.”
“No. He đã đưa ý kiến it so bạn would all think that. There is a mole.”
“Then who is it?”
“No one on the team. Somebody who's been watching bạn as much as I have. And they're getting paid to do it.”
“Do bạn know who it is?”
“Yes. But for your sakes I must not tell.”
“Our sakes?”
“Mhmm. This person wants nothing thêm than your destruction. And if bạn know who it is, your death will be all too swift.”
