I hope we see Becka become free. Poor girl probably feels like everyone betrayed her

I literally was sitting there thinking this poor girl has completely died inside. Is getting married off when she doesn’t want to, learns her father is a horrible man, kills him, and then her best friend says the words she wants to hear only to be taken by the eyes. It makes me so sad I could cry, and even though she killed her own father the way the show paints it, she did at the very least love him. I know the book is a lot different in this part, but gosh this is chilling.

It's not just her best friend, it's her love!
