You do not have to present not-truths to me, Sasha. I am not a child."(But I do. That is what you always fail to understand. I present not-truths to protect you. I exist in case you need to be protected.) "I do not understand," I said. (I understand.) "You do not?" he said. (You do.)... "I am not a bad person," he said. "I am a good person who has lived in a bad time." "I know this," I said. (Even if you were a bad person, I would still know you are a good person.)
