391 Oh Brother, My Brother - Part 2

~ DAVID ~

"Erik—"

"I had to come back. And she helped me do it, even though it didn't suit her. She helped me… or should I say, you. She helped me because she cares, David."

"Wait… what?!"

Then he lifted his chin to stare me straight in the eye, his forehead furrowed. "I never betrayed you. She thinks I'm you. She thinks I came back for Zara. But I didn't. I came back for her. I need her David. You aren't using her. You can't—and she's of no further use to you. Please. Please… let her go. Let me tell her. Let me show her. I've never asked you for anything like this. Ever. But I need this now. I need your help now. She needs to know that she's not alone in this world. Because she's so fucking alone, David. And it's so unfair. Everywhere she goes she's just a pawn of power. She thinks I don't get it, because she thinks I'm you. But I do. I get it. I fucking get it."
