Alma:
When I was 14, I went to a party. I sat alone at night on the terrace. My classmates were dancing in the cellar. I looked out at the townhouses and suddenly I knew that God didn't exist. And I became an atheist. I made a vow to myself back then. If I'm in an airplane that's on fire, I'm not going to pray. I won't ask the Lord for help, just out of fear. Because I don't believe in God. Do you understand?
Tom:
Yes.
Alma:
Really?
Tom:
You won't allow yourself to become close to a machine out of desperation and longing for human contact.
Alma:
There's a gulf between us. We can pretend it doesn't exist, pretend the illusion is just another form of reality, but certain things highlight just how deep and insurmountable that gulf is.
Tom:
What things?
Alma:
Things you don't understand. Things that make you sad the second you think of them, even if you don't want to. Things you long for or missed out on that will never return.
Tom:
Can you show me these things?
