Chapter 50 - Come Home To Me

(CORRINE)

Anger is a difficult emotion to let go of. And it's usually linked with pride.

I never knew that I had any pride or that I was allowed to till I came here, till I learned that I was fighting for more than just my life.

And it's my pride that throbs when Sigrid tells me the truth, when Locke tells me what really happened. I can't make sense of it. These aren't emotions I can take apart and assess. I don't want to feel this way. I don't want to stop being angry.

All these years, my anger has been the only thing I've held on to. Knowing now that I've been angry over nothing, that I spent the last eight years being upset over nothing, makes me feel all sorts of ways.

"If you want to go somewhere, you ask for permission from your mother. And if you upset her, I'll knock some sense into you."
