Malia took a bunch of the burgers and an order of fries and finished an entire cheeseburger before she spoke.
"Yeah, well, I don't really know much about how friends work. I mean, I have a few I guess, but everybody back home left me." And that hurt more than she cared to admit. "They all went off to college and I couldn't. My grades weren't high enough, because I missed from fourth grade through my junior year. I got into a community college though, and they said I could transfer in a few years..."
That was much longer than most speeches Malia made, and it showed how emotionally invested she was in all of this.
