Crisis.
I didn't mean to leave him. Again. but I just can't stay and take all of this.
I promised Mama and Papa that I'd always take care of Armand. I swore it. I swore I would never let anything happen to him and now this...i've failed. Utterly and completely failed. If I can't even take care of him, how can I expect to be able to take care of my own child?
I should have been there. I should have been looking after him. He was sick, and I just left. I have never done that before, never.
I nearly killed him.
And then I couldn't even stay and take care of him. Nor could I run to my husband. Instead I run like a coward to hide from everything I know. Doubtless there will be all sorts of rumors when people find that I have been staying with Doctor Seward, but i don't even care anymore. The boy I would have died to protect nearly did die, no, suffered worse than death, and I did NOTHING to stop it! Mon Dieu...
If I could take his place, I would in a heartbeat. But now, I can't...I just...
I'm sorry, Armand.
