[She smiles.]

Aw honey, I know.

[She merely gathers up Layla in a much tighter hug, stroking her hair and rocking her back and forth.]

It ain't your fault honey, and it's not for me ta tell. But I won't go anywhere.

[She hugs back tighter]

But it is my fault. I'm the one that made Layla be quiet. And... I'm not telling momma.

And I know it's lying, and that's bad... but I'm not a bad monster, I promise....

But... what if momma figures it out and gets upset?

What if she wants the first Layla back?

I think honey, you need to realize a mother will always want to protect her baby, and if you made her baby sleep, then she's gonna get mad. I know it's sad, but you need to give Layla back her body, honey. We'll get you a new one, but Layla deserves a life.

Even if she's a bad monster?

She doesn't love momma. Or anyone. I think I only got in because she was empty.....

Wait, a new one? [She looks up again, trying to wrap her mind around this.] So.... so someone else?
