Anyone who's been talkin' ta "me" today up until now, unless it was a private chat or face ta face, it wasn't me. Someone decided ta stick her nose in all over the place, and didn't even bother ta show her sorry hide ta me herself.

Ignore anythin' she told any of ya.

[She's soooo angry.]

I lost my temper. I threatened someone. Had I not, that entire night wouldn't have happened. I'm not the cause of the mob that gathered, I'm not responsible for the KGB that would rather an innocent child die because of who her parents are, but if I hadn't lost my temper, it wouldn't have happened. As many times as others lectured me on my temper, as much damage as it's caused...I shouldn't have allowed myself to become so angry.

[The problem is, he's a parent. And all parents, that really love their children, would always take the blame to the extreme places.]

Ya couldn't have known.

[It's all she can say, because that's all there is. He couldn't have known. If he had, things might have been drastically different.]

[ They will, and he's not an exception. ]

I knew better than to lose my temper like that. I put my pride above what was best for my family. And I kept doing that.

[ If he had, he'd have taken them and fled, would have done anything to keep them safe. He never wanted to have his children grow up in fear. ]
