“I'm sorry," I say. "About being a bit odd sometimes, at school."
Camille shakes her head. "You really have to stop saying that. Incessant apologizing is never an attractive trait."
"You're right. The thing is, I really am quite bad, you know, with people."
"Ah, them. People. Yes, it's hard."
"And I have a lot, sometimes, going on in my head."
"Join the club."
"There's a club?"
"No. There are too many people in clubs. But it's fine. Be how you want to be.”

The future is you.”
