The men liked to stay awake to see the stars because I did. I liked it, but I remember feeling very lonely sometimes. I like that the people here aren’t hollow like that.” She holds her hand out in front of her, peering at her fingers in thought.

Well, if it’s what you want, I hope you do get claimed soon by someone who will show you the beauty in diversity.”
