I know I told you guys I was going to consider it.
Maybe it's the right decision?
Maybe.
But I just can't.
As the moment draws closer, my despair only grows.
It shouldn't be that hard to understand, right?
Things were just starting to get better for us.
I finally was able to buy little Jo a few toys last month.
We even went to an amusement park together for the first time last weekend.
She was so happy…
I had never seen her smile that much before.
And now you want to take that happiness away?
It can't be true.
I can't even believe it.
Sounds like a terrible taste joke.
Working so hard every day at that damn job is only bearable because I have little Jo with me.
She is the only thing I care about in life.
No family, no friends, and abandoned by the one I thought loved me the most.
Sometimes I thought there was no way out for me, but then I always remember that I still have her, and that instantly makes me feel better.
Little Jo is my only hope now. The only happiness left for me.
I won't let you guys take her away like this.
Besides that, who the fuck do you guys think you are? Gods?
Why should we sacrifice ourselves for the greater good or whatever?
Who decided that?
How is that fair at all?
And how can I even believe you're telling the truth?
Don't make me laugh.
I refuse.
I won't allow it.
In all honesty, even if what you're saying is true, I still wouldn't accept it.
This world can burn for all I care.
Everyone has always used me and then discarded.
They're all so selfish.
So why wouldn't I be as well?
Why should we sacrifice ourselves for their sake?
Simply makes no sense.
We're leaving for a distant place where no one can find us.
Just me and her.
And we'll be happy together.
That's the only thing that really matters.
After all, isn't that how things have always been in this world?
There is no right answer.
