Quote context

[...]

- My name is Mike Hammer, if it matters.

- What do you want?

- I was with Christina the night she was killed. They tried to kill me too. If you like, I'll show you the scars.

- How'd you find me?

- Picked up a thread. Anybody could do it.

- Mind if I sit down while you're making up your mind?

- Christina was my friend.

- The bird in the cage, what happened to it?

- It was a nice bird. Used to eat out of my hand.

- You let it die. Why'd you let it die?

- It reminded me of her every time it sang.

- She was a good kid. She was lots of fun. We worked together, couple of jobs. Till she got sick. That's when I noticed that she started to change.

- You get on a merry-go-round and think you can get off any old time. But then it starts going too fast.

- She was scared. She was more and more scared. She was afraid to go out. She'd go to the movies once in a while, or out for groceries, but never very far.
