Ellie's words are quiet. If she has to tell Abby the truth, then it's only fair that Glimmer know, too. The words are choppy, halting. What's one more atrocity, really? One more horrible thing that Ellie's capable of doing?
Maybe everyone who knows her should have a right to know this. Maybe they deserve to make that choice.
Maybe she's a giant hypocrite who did this on purpose.
"The kid she was traveling with. Maybe- twelve. Thirteen. I don't know. But I put a knife to his throat, because she didn't want to fight."
Ellie feels vaguely like throwing up. She still can't meet Glimmer's eyes.
