The moment Desmond steps out, the air doesn't just shift—it sours. A tension creeps back in, the kind that makes every breath feel heavy, mine especially. I've never seen him look so angry... or so sad, everything that has happened so far must have been poignant for him. And to be fair, it affected me too.
I thought talking to Eve would change her perspective on Desmond, a rather stupid assumption on my part. I should've known she would still choose Calvin over him given how she told me to love her son better than her.
Whatever her reason for not just stepping up and doing it herself is.
