“Fear,” I sniffed as I closed my eyes, “is a terrible thing to live your life by. I may be a lot of things…I may lack social awareness, the average display of emotions one needs to communicate, and I may not be like most women here…but Terry Clarke would always say, what you fear owns your bones, what you face, bows to your soul.”
