Claire was quiet for a while. Most of that was because her vocabulary had completely failed for some reason. She couldn't think of what she wanted to say, or how she wanted to say it.
"See, that's just it, though," she said finally. "I know you would never lie to me... and I know you told me the truth just now. I... maybe I'm just stupid, and can't understand why anyone would--"
She sat down heavily on the couch.
"Fuck. You know what, this is about me." She shook her head. "It's not that I don't understand how I wound up with you, it's that I don't understand why anyone would want to wind up with me."
Claire pulled her pistol out of her shoulder holster and tossed it onto Leon's coffee table. "And it's all because of this shit."
