Daryn was right about one thing. Of all the flaws in the school- and there were many- they never taught the most important lesson; How to be different. Students knew how to hide, to appear normal, wear the mask, keep themselves safe. But Daryn hit it right on the head. Nobody really explained how hard it was to go about the day with a huge secret swallowed like a pill. For most people, that was a problem.
It never had been for Tina, who smiled about it, even now. "I think there are two kinds of people in this world. There are those who want to fit in, and those who don't. And for people like you, who wanna fit in, you're right. It's gotta be hard. No wonder you came back here."
