*Cesar's fingers grasp at air, and he looks at the edge of the bed that the button fell away over with clear frustration. 'How' turns to 'Get out', and 'go away', and the blanket falls back as he hunches warily.*
*'Persistent'. What, for his own good? Bullshit. 'Please cooperate', as though Cesar was being the difficult one. His mouth closes, pressing his lips to a thin line, and his glare only gets narrower. Who did this guy think he was, anyway?*
*The phone is back in his hands. Strangely enough, he has fewer filters now than he ever did when he could speak out loud.*
I know that your persistence was probably what got my brother killed. I don't remember the details.
*There's a fumble in his stride. He remembers more than he wants to let on, but the impact is in his next words.*
As for me, they thought I talked to much.
Now I'll never speak again.
*He turns the phone, holding it without giving it up.*
