Bab 1545: Dust

Ning stayed by Katie's side, doing nothing but letting her know that he would help her if she needed it.

He didn't really know what to do to begin with. He didn't understand what it was to become Sparkless. They said many things about the situation, but one had to be in it to know it.

For now, he had the drug dealers to deal with.

"Suicide is not the answer," he said after a long moment of silence. "I don't know what the answer is really, but killing yourself is not it."

"I know," Katie said. "But I still think about it all the time. I know it's bad, but I can't help myself. Why am I so weak?"

"I don't think you are weak," Ning said. "I think you're strong. You are living, despite everything inside of you telling you to stop doing so. To say no to what you want, one has to be very strong to be able to do that."

Katie said nothing and just sat with her head down.

"Thank you," she said after a while.
