But when we pulled onto Reilly Street, the jokes stopped cold. Thick smoke was already billowing from a third-floor window. The air tasted like burning plastic and paint fumes. Crowds were forming on the sidewalk, most of them students in pajamas and hoodies, some filming, some just standing frozen in that way people do when they think the worst is still just fiction.

I gathered all the evidence of Lilian's crimes and handed it over to the police. Meanwhile, Lilian grew increasingly unhinged as she tried to earn my forgiveness.

Yet all the suffering she endured amounted to less than a fraction of what Wesley and I had suffered. While she wallowed in constant remorse, I knew that the Teravon police were already on their way.
