Rosalynn could tell Alison was going through a hell of fear and helplessness.
The girl was almost choked to death by Pauline.
She'd been missing for some days and her family didn't give a rat's ass about her safety.
From Alison's choices, it was clear that she was one cold-hearted kid. Her feelings for her family was nothing but fear, no love whatsoever.
"Once you're done crying your heart out, you gotta start prepping for going abroad," Rosalynn told her, wiping away her tears. "I've got your back for the rest."
"I'll remember every penny you guys have spent on me, and I'll repay you when I grow up!" Alison was shaking like a leaf.
Perhaps she was crying so hard out of utter sorrow. The bruise on her neck looked even more shocking.
"We'll sort that stuff out later," Rosalynn said with a more gentle tone, "First, think about which country you'd like to go to."
Alison managed to stabilize herself a bit, choked back a few sobs, then said somewhat bashfully, "I don't really know this kind of stuff, could you... help me pick?"
"I'll give you a few options, you can learn about their cultures and customs in your spare time, then pick one you like. How's that?"
Alison nodded and suddenly understood why Ivy was always so happy.
Her dad loved her, and her mom was very tender.
Thinking about this, the image of Pauline choking her and glaring at her with hatred popped up in Alison's mind again.
