″‘You don’t care what anyone thinks. You know?’
My ears burned. ‘I care what everyone thinks, Sohrab.’
‘No you don’t. Not really. You don’t try to change yourself. You know who you are.‘”
“The thing is, I never had a friend like Sohrab before. One who understood me without even trying. Who knew what it was like to be stuck on the outside because of one little thing that set you apart.”
″‘I wish you could see yourself the way I see you.’
‘I wish you could see yourself too.’ I swallowed. ‘You’re the only person who never wanted me to change.‘”
