As the other guy spoke - Cairo had never heard him talking this much - he narrowed his eyes. He was saying very disturbing things Cairo didn't exactly want to hear. How could the boy know if he was all bad or not? They didn't know each other, and Cairo hadn't showed him nothing but the bad. Not much of the good, so far. And maybe it was fair enough that Newbie assumed he was going to hurt him more... What else could he expect, really? Maybe he was right. Cairo was good at hurting people. One of the rare things he was good at.
What did this guy think he knew?
"You don't know me or my life," he muttered. "I'm not scared or sad or lonely--" Hearing the lie in his own voice made him curse in annoyance, but it was towards himself. "Fuck this. Stop pretending to know me... You don't. And I don't know you either. And... that's all. That place is good. He's a good guy, he just... sometimes..."
Shaking his head again, he stepped away from the door, heading towards the bathroom. "I'll take a shower," he said, his voice again blank and emotionless. "I wanna this shit outta my hair, this smell's driving my crazy." He wanted this guy to stop messing his head even more. Fine, Crybaby was right! About being scared, sad and lonely. Yeah. Whatever. But nobody needed to know that. It didn't matter. That boy could tell it, because deep down they weren't so different... which meant Cairo was same kind of a loser. And he couldn't afford to be. Nobody could know.
"You can't help me, y'know," he said from the bathroom's door, just before entering the room. "And... it ain't even normal that you'd wanna. You got your problems, and I got mine, and that's it." And Cairo was one of his problems. "That's how life works, if your mommy and daddy didn't tell ya."
