“She closed her eyes, and I closed mine, and even though we weren't holding hands, it felt like we were.
Because what we had, we knew.”

“People aren't locked doors. You can get through to them if you want.

But no one did. No one reached out a hand to Tulip. Nobody tried to touch her. I hear them whispering and they sicken me. 'Bus seats!' grumbles Mrs Bodell. 'Locker doors!' complain the teachers. 'Chicken sheds!' say the farmers. 'Greenhouses! Dustbins!' moan the neighbours. And Mum says, 'A lovely old hotel!'

But what about Tulip?
I shall feel sorry for Tulip all my life.
And guilty, too.
Guilty.”
― Anne Fine, The Tulip Touch
