Feeling
“How do you do it, Nate?” asked Parker, sitting huddled in blankets on his couch.
He sat beside her, careful not to touch. “Do what?”
“Feel things. Mr. Olsen died. Because of what that company covered up, and yeah, we made them pay, but he still died, so what good did it do?”
Nate paused. “We prevented them from killing anyone else,” he said. “Olsen knew that, and he died knowing he’d made a difference.”
“And that’s good?” Parker asked, then scowled. “This was easier when I didn’t care about anyone.”
“I know,” said Nate, and hugged her. “I know.”
