I have no proof, I'm afraid. And it is not my world to be speaking of in the first place. But if there were a world for every scenario, all those infinite little possibilities where one person chose something differently and altered the ripples from there on out, then statistically, there certainly is one in which those who were determined to change history failed to do so, one way or another.
All I have is a firsthand account. And perhaps I should take it with a grain of salt, but I believe in the person who told it to me.
[Which is all she can do. And speaking of believing...]
Is there really nothing more I can do to convince you I don't just want you to drop dead? Because I don't, and it hurts to see you sulk and lash out at others over it. I want to fix the problem, because you're like to simmer for a good long time if I can't.
