“Give me a smoke, Delores, will you? Ah, great stuff! Who brought you these? They taste great. Your sister? Not the one…oh okay, the other one. Good girl she is, right? I guess it’s lucky for you to have two sisters, a spare one after what you did to the other. Ha!

  Okay, so she’s coming here today, that Camille I told you about. I told her to have her fucking ass across from me today, and she agreed. Weak, very weak. I had already said ‘no’ three times, but it was just a matter of snapping my fingers to bring her fast as a lightning to me. Tsk, tsk…

  You’d think going through what she went through would make her strong, tough. Nah! From what her voice showed me, it made her a lamb. Meat. I wonder how can she be out there while I’m here inside. I mean, come on, she’s a fucking loser! She was literally fucked for her whole childhood, and did nothing in return.

  She escaped, oh, big deal, Delores. She should’ve simply cut the jerk’s throat before she left. Look at this guy. Here, I’ve got her book, she sent it to me. Look, there’s a picture of the fucker, right here. Now you tell me that you, Delores Phillips, who killed your boyfriend for sleeping with your sister, would have just left that horror house? Oh, come on, be honest! You’d have made him choke on his own balls before cutting the heart out of his chest if he’d done that to you. I know you would’ve.

  Hey, don’t get me wrong, girl. You’d be right! Hell, I’d love to cut up this crap bastard and he didn’t even touch me. We’re made out of different material, Delores. We are strong! That’s why I like you, and why you love me, girl. We aren’t doormats.

  And still, we are the ones kept behind bars, while the weaklings rule the land! Un-fucking-believable.

  Why did I decide to talk to her now? You know, Delores, I think it’s time for the world to know my story. I think they are all too quiet there, on the outside. I need to shake them up a bit, tell them the truth. You know, people are getting softer and softer these days. I guess they need Cassie to make them see the truth.

  This fucking sheep Camille might help.”
