Logical fallacy...that kind of feels a little bit like an oxymoron. [Lydia's English notes at work, ladies and gentlemen.
Still, what Iris has to say makes sense. Thinking something's bad because you want it...because you don't feel worthy of it...because you could lose it...
Okay, so maybe she has a point, but it doesn't bother Allison any less knowing what she is to him. She doesn't want to be the ghost that haunts him, she doesn't want to hurt him. She wants to help, she wants to be a reason he graduates.
...but sometimes, at least based on her own experience, that's what ghosts are for.
After a moment, she takes a deep breath and nods, managing a small smile.]
It's...not easy, but I'll try to remember that. Thanks, Iris.
