Just about anyone you can think of probably has it worse than me. Maybe that's why I'm not happy. When something bad happens it hits me hard cause I'm not all that used to it." She paused, and looked at Ruty. "I like you. Quite a bit. And I trust you. That hasn't happened in awhile." She smiled sadly.
