Enid
I'm smiling so much right now. She just said she liked me. Well, not like that, but, I'll take the win.Suddenly her face goes solemn. Did I say something?
"Enid." She asks in urgency.
"Yeah?"
"You deserve so much more than how your awful birth-giver treats you. It's a mystery to me how anyone could treat someone so- someone like you with this kind of abuse and neglect. You should be extremely proud of yourself, and these..."
She strokes my scars. Even with her cold skin, my face still heats up. Her fingers are so smooth for belonging to someone so callous at first glance.
"Don't ever hide these. I envy such heroically earned marks as these. I've dreamed of having something like those since I was a child."
"You have?"
It's hard to imagine- no wait. I definitely can see a young Wednesday Addams putting herself in danger in hopes of 'earning a battle scar' or whatever gibberish she would recite.
"Indeed. Once I got a small cut from a cat, and paraded around the room, much to my parents' confusion. When they told me it wouldn't scar, I stayed in my room for a month."
"Wow. A month?"
"I was devastated. What else would I have done?"
She looks so sincere, it makes me laugh.
"Why are you laughing? It's not funny."
"Mhm, ok." I manage to choke out.
As I start to calm down, she pulls my face closer to mine, her hand on my chin.
My heart is beating so fast. Can she hear it? What is she doing? She just looks at me, and I look at her. It feels like forever, but maybe it's just because it's so rare of a moment.
"You.. have a freckle there." She blurts, letting go of me.
"Oh."
She stands up.
"We'll be arriving soon. I'm off to the restroom." She announces, leaving with a nod.
Ok. What was that? Time to rewind. Nope, just makes me more confused. God, I need someone to talk to.
I pull out my phone and text Yoko. Maybe she's not busy anymore?
Enid

Yoko
