“There’s got to be something wrong with us. To do what we did. ”
“Revenge is two wrongs that make a right. Julian did something wrong. What did you do wrong?”
“We did what our people do all the time, we told ourselves something we did was right and we found a way to justify it, even though we knew it was wrong.”
“Nothing about us is right. We’re the wrongest kids you’ve ever seen. Our faces are wrong with zits, we have the wrong hair, the wrong clothes, and I think we might be ugly. Our families are wrong because none of us are rich, our bodies are wrong because we suck at sports, and there’s something really wrong with all of our personalities, because nobody likes us, not even the teachers. Teachers make fun of us too, and think we don’t notice.”
“We did everything adults would do. What went wrong?”
“It felt like the wrong thing to do, standing at the wrong door in the wrong place. We did it anyway. Knowing something is wrong and doing it anyway happens very often in life, and I doubt I will eer know why.”
