[Llewellyn bites his tongue a little, he knows what Enis thinks of herself. They’d had this conversation before... He doesn’t like that she thinks herself a monster simply because of what she was. It wasn’t fair. He knew those who could be said to be monsters, she was far from it in his opinion.]
You’re not a monster, Enis. Not to me. To me you’re my friend, and even if you think I shouldn’t care about you, I do.
[He shakes his head at her words,]
And you didn’t make me— caring doesn’t work like that. You can’t force feelings one way or another... believe me I’ve tried. I care because I got to know you and have come to enjoy our time together.
I intend to continue to, despite knowing the hurt there will be should a day come when you’re gone.
