I...went to one of those parties again tonight. [Like they'd done earlier in the week, though she doesn't think Yuri needs a reminder.] I spent some time with a friend. A girl named Justine, if you've met her.
[Closing her eyes, she spits out the next part. It's obvious that she's forcing words out, her tone pained, her eyes beginning to water all over again. Throat raw, tight with emotion, she clenches her fists together.]
We went on a carriage ride, because it seemed nice. Only something scared those strange horses and they took off into the sky. She...she died. She died and there wasn't anything I could do about it.
