"I called him."
"I called them."
There have always been times when the group psyche itself has been attacked. Lexington, Pearl Harbor, 9112001, in the streets the world over.
"What'd they say?" A daughter asked. The man could not speak.
All phone calls were being recorded, so others listened. There were dead bodies from the main village to the hotel. "Hundreds?"
"Hundreds. It's been verified."
"What'd she say?"
"She's still saying. I'll put her on speaker phone. Calling it like a break from reality of situation...triggered the reaction...response...loyalties...training...heat of the moment...irresponsibility of whoever let it get out of control in her opinion. People kept eating breakfast, taking vitamins, checking snack boxes, tying shoelaces.
"He said you'll have to take his place."
