 Youâre good!  Itâs two girls I live with, actually, both with dark hair.  My friend and my fiance, whoâs probably the one youâre smelling who hugged me just before I left.  I was really nervous to come here, to be honest. Â
Wasnât weird to me. Donât they though? Â Who gets to decide what is normal? Â Youâre right, you are a teenager, and all you hear is all that stuff about how everyone is different right? And anyone who spends 10 minutes in a high school cafeteria can definitely prove thatâs true. Â So, if everyoneâs different, then the very concept of normality doesnât even exist. Â Itâs just something people say to make you feel bad about being yourself.Â
I understand that. Trust me, I do. But the people that I know? Â All the other people who have powers like you and I do? Â They can help you control that. Â And then your power wonât feel like a curse anymore, itâll feel like a gift. I used to not be able to walk into a zoo without getting an unbearable headache from all of the animals trying to communicate with me. Â Now? I own my own animal shelter in the city. Â I never would have come that far if I never got help.
Iâm not asking you to live in pain. Â Iâm asking you to embrace who you are, and help a whole bunch of people who really need it in the process.
I would be nervous too if I were you.Â
 I know that what youâre saying is right; and I honestly never thought about it. Whether I was different or not, it wasnât something that bothered me. But now... itâs not because Iâm not like ânormal peopleâ, you know? Itâs just that... it sucks. Sometimes I think that I would even enjoy having... a gift, is that how you call it? If it was something cool like, I donât know, the ability to fly.Â
Ignoring voices is easy, I do that with my mom everytime.Â
Iâm not sure these people can teach me how to eat or touch without feel what I feel.Â
