Summary
“No, it’s…” Etho glances back down at the ring on his finger, watches it reflect the light as he spins it around with his thumb. "It’s a lot.”
“You think I don't know that?”
Joel is the one who is miles away from home, the one who had a tearful goodbye to his large family as they shoved gifts in his hands before riding off. Etho feels awful that he can't even muster up any sympathy for him at the moment.
“I’m never going to love you.” He whispers like it's an apology. Like that’s enough to justify how he’s been acting.
