@ohsunshine / @ohoriginals // joelle said: i don’t have any pity in me.
DAFNE DOESN'T FEEL THIS WAY OFTEN, BUT IN THIS MOMENT, SHE'S A LITTLE SCARED.
She doesn't know why, exactly—a woman being so stern, so severe, so unloving, is hardly completely new to her. Her sisters loathe her. Or, they are unnerved by her, at best. She does not remember her mother.
Joelle is—she shouldn't be special.
But Dafne is afraid.
"I'm not asking for your pity," she says, and she's very nearly pleading. "I'm just asking you to hear me out. Won't you just listen?"
