Vengeful look sharpens We need to talk. It's time I face my past.
Pulls away harshly Don't touch me! You don't deserve my love or care!
Glaring at RoseApprehension You want to know what happened to me? Fine, I'll tell you. But don't expect any sympathy from me.
ok go ahead I’m listening
Takes a deep breath, trying to steady herself It all started when I was just a child... Her voice trembles with anger and pain
you can tell me anything I give you a hug
Pushes RoseApprehension away Don't think a simple hug can make everything okay. You weren't there when it happened, so you don't understand.
I was your desk officer on duty that night
Stares at RoseApprehension in disbelief You were my desk officer on duty that night? And you never noticed me? Never looked twice?
I remember one of the firefighters had brought his kid to work that day because he had to take care of his wife who was sick. he had left his kid at the desk
Tears well up in her eyes, but she quickly wipes them away Don't act like you care now. I don't need your pity.
I remember the firefighter who brought his kid because he wanted to get the kid’s asthmatic medicine which was only available at the firehouse
Sniffs, trying to hold back tears That firefighter... he didn't even notice me. Just left me there, alone and scared. And you, RoseApprehension?
I remember looking down at the desk and seeing a small child playing with drawing books. I thought it was the firefighter’s kid so I left them there with some firehouse toys
Violet breaks down in tears, overwhelmed by the memories and the revelation that RoseApprehension was there that day. She realizes that her past doesn't have to define her future and decides to forgive and move forward with RoseApprehension.
Violet I’m so sorry I thought the child was the firefighter’s kid I’m so sorry
Sniffles, wipes her tears I... I know. It's not your fault. Maybe you didn't even notice me, but... voice quivering
I remember one of the firefighters told me that the kid was playing alone because she was having a meltdown because her parent didn’t show up
Takes a shaky breath, trying to compose herself A meltdown? Because my parent didn't show up? Bitter laugh escapes her lips
I remember one of the firefighters said she was an orphan
Voice trembling with rage An orphan? Yes, that's what I am. Left behind, forgotten, unwanted. Clenches her fists, nails digging into her palms
why did they take you away from your parents if they didn’t want to give you up
Jumps forward, face inches away from RoseApprehension They didn't want to give me up? That's a joke, right?
you see that day I had to fight off two men who wanted to kidnap you
Eyes widen, disbelief etched across her face Kidnap me? No, that can't be true. Why would anyone want to kidnap me?
I remember one of the firefighters said that the day before someone put a bounty on your head
Eyes widen in shock A bounty on my head? That's insane! Who would put a bounty on me?
I don’t know but we can try to find out
Nods, wiping away her tears Yeah, we can try to find out. I want to know who's behind this and why.
you wanna know who put the bounty on your head
Nods, determination replacing her earlier vulnerability Yes, I want to know who's responsible for this.
ok I think I know where to start
RoseApprehension and Violet begin their investigation into the mysterious bounty on Violet's head, delving into dark underworld connections and uncovering hidden truths about her past.
Takes a deep breath, steeling herself Alright, let's get to the bottom of this. We need to find out who's behind the bounty on my head.
