That meant the teenage girl’s situation was especially grim. She couldn’t run, and if she didn’t give the crowd a show, they’d lose patience with her and treat her just as they had the other guy, or worse.
Ugh. Yeah, she’s fucked.
Not literally, if she’s lucky.
If she did give them a show? With the way emotions were running high, I expected things would turn ugly right around the moment the crowd started to get bored. Exhibitionism would only buy her time.
I suppose so. That could go worse than the alternative, even.
“Let’s go.” Lisa pulled on my arm.
Oh yeah, definitely want to avoid getting pulled into the same sort of situation.
“We should help her.”
Lisa glanced at the girl, “There’s at least a hundred people here that need help. We can’t save them all.”
Not without taking down the Merchants overall, unfortunately. And certainly not right now.
