"He's a strange man..." she said, scratching under her left arm and squinting. Her friend seemed indifferent, though she was eager to hear the story, a restless anger brewing inside her—perhaps partly because she "wasn't, and had never been, in a relationship." She got up and took a few steps toward the television on the table in the corner. Her walk was unremarkable at that moment, just a lazy saunter that made her body sway. Before she could open her mouth, pressing on her friend's knee, a young man appeared on the screen, face down in the mud and rain. When an officer pulled him up, his face was hidden by a black mask. Of course, what mattered now—to me—wasn't discovering his identity, but his answer to the investigator's question: "Why did you rape them?! What was the motive?! Why?!".
