“Moving on felt like burying my past self all over again and swearing to never visit her grave, even if she just wanted flowers. I couldn't bring myself to abandon her entirely.”

“Being compared to other girls in that way didn’t make me feel “mature” or “special,” as he had likely intended it to. It made me feel like a demon disguised as a child. I listened as he claimed that I was the only young girl he had ever wanted to ruin, and at once, I thought it was my fault for existing in front of him; like something about me made him a monster. The words “You’re different” didn’t sound like a compliment at all. It sounded like other girls deserved to be protected, and I didn’t.”
