“What’s it like, having a sister? I never had any siblings.”

“It’s terrible!” This drew a small smile from Rayan, but it wasn’t enough. “But it’s also like…” she searched for a metaphor he’d understand, “it’s like wearing a shield. It’s heavy to carry, but it protects the most precious parts of you. I love Yeeran more than anything.”
― Saara El-Arifi, Faebound
