me
where I made mistakes! |
***
I do not know how I did it. I saw him with a gun in his hand pointed
at Mulder, again, threatening his life. Was he really protecting Mulder
when he told me to choose? Did he really know? There wasn't enough time.
I couldn't even make out what he was saying. I just saw that gun in
his hand and I saw red.
It came down to this, this was the only way out, out of the
uncertainties, out of the unanswered questions. Would he ever give
any of us answers? Did he really have any? Maybe he was more of a patsy
than any of us. Maybe he didn't know the answers at all. He was shooting
in a barrel like the rest of us.
And maybe I am just coming up with excuses for shooting a man right
between the eyes.
