Wordle #1148 – MEDIC
The audio continues.
Cecilia: “So, why don’t you tell me what happened?”
Bree: “You’re right. About everything… mostly. But I never meant to kill Roy.
We were arguing, about Austin… Austin and I had been seeing each other for a couple of months, and Roy was getting suspicious. But even when he confronted me that night, even when we were arguing, he never really got mad about it. It was like he didn’t actually care enough to fight for me. Which made me mad. Then he said… something, and I was just so angry that I—
I… I pushed him. I didn’t mean to hurt him, it just happened. He fell and hit his head and…
He died.”
When the clip ends, the studio goes quieter than a mime convention.
Bree looks about to pass out, all the color drained from her cheeks, and I briefly wonder whether there’s a medic in the building.
