Starting from scratch

MARGAUX

I felt like I needed that crying episode. Although I had to play shameless with Kevin now.

He had seen me drunk and helpless. But for some reason, I am grateful that he was the one who followed me to the bathroom and pulled me out.

He has been helping me more than I had bargained for,

When this is all over, I'll make sure that I give back to him and his friends every kindness that they had shown me and Mary.

I was nobody but a stranger who infiltrated their silent crew and now, because of me, Takahashi will be breathing down on their necks.

They were no longer safe.

And yet, they didn't seem to resent me.

I appreciate them and I vow to protect them that none of them would suffer the same fate as I have.

Takahashi has left me with nothing and no one.

I cannot let that happen to them too.

My losses will be mine alone. After all, I'm dragging all of them in an uncertain fight.
