I love Sara, but something was taken from me at the church, something that she can__ relate to. Every time I walk outside I think maybe someone is going to grab me. I take a sip of a glass of water I got out of my own tap and swish it around in my mouth first, like maybe it__ a threat. And I__ starting to understand why Alex walks around on the balls of her feet, why her back muscles are always tensed, like a cat ready to spring.She knows. She gets it. So that__ why I__ going to tell Sara that I__ okay and leave it at that.
