[There's no beating around the idea. She doesn't love Ethan and while Junko had been willing to try and come to love him over time it's just not going to happen. It can't work. Even if she did manage to fool herself for a little while she'd resent whatever life they managed to build together before she came to her senses.] But I liked that he thinks the whole world of me, that he actually thinks about the future and that I'm in it.
[That's all pretty wording, but she's being honest here so Junko sits next to her uncle, and stares at her hands in her lap, wrings her fingers together.]
... I just wanted someone to pay attention to me. Dad's fucking everyone under the sun, mom's still obsessed with him or Yamato, and he completely returns that. Koji's with Veronica, and Audrey's even got Sullivan and Tom.
[She's the only one kind of left off to the side, and it's shit.] I get that it's fucked up and selfish. So I should just end it.
