"I mean, I don't think much that happened on day fifteen, would interest you very much" Addie admitted to the two agents.

"We need to know as much as you can remember about the important stuff even if you don't think it's important. It may be vital to our investigation" Young said to Addie as stoically as Addie thought was possible.

"So, what happened next," Faber asked.

"I don't think you need to know what happened next. But it definitely made Toni and I look at Shelby differently." Addie confessed.

"It's the genetic, by the way, the...the other ones just never came in, in case you were wondering," Shelby told the duo as the three of them carried on collecting firewood.

"I wasn't," Toni told the blonde bluntly.

"I was," Addie said unabashedly cause the pair to look over at her kind of shocked she was curious about it.

"What? I have known you since we were six, I'm allowed to be a little curious since I've never noticed." Addie shrugged still not finding anything wrong with being curious about Shelby.

"Yeah, I'm not fishing for sympathy." Shelby shrugged "but it hasn't not been hard."

"Okay, Becky maybe don't talk to me about hard" Toni told the blonde as she started to cram as much of the firewood as she could inside the empty swag bag.

"Nobody believes me when I say this, but I do have actual problems, like, way more than you can imagine," Shelby said mainly directing the sentence at Toni.

"Shelbs, we all have problems," Addie said trying to stop either of the girls from starting an argument.

"All right, great. Let's hear 'em" Toni stood up in front of Shelby and asked to hear her problems even though Addie knew Toni probably didn't think she had real problems.

"Do you have any idea what it's like to have to be pitch-perfect every second? To be watched like a Hawk for the slightest bit of weight gain or the tiniest wobble in my heel or...or if my hem is just a centimetre off regulation or I say the wrong thing about international politics? Well, then God help me." Shelby unloaded on the pair.

"So you're complaining about being judged when you literally signed up for that." Toni reminded the girl as Addie stood up from where she was on the other side of the firewood to the pair.
