Ella [entry #5]

March 12, 2017:

I ended up having a conversation with that stranger from the café yesterday. He came over to thank me for paying for his coffee, and I invited him to sit down. We got to talking, and we found out a lot about each other- his name is Luke Hemmings. I didn't tell him about the cancer though. I just got this feeling that he would treat me differently, like a piece of glass that would shatter if I bumped my hip on a table. I like it better this way. I can just be the same old Ella Richards, I don't have to be the same-old-Ella-Richards-except-for-the-fact-that-she-has-cancer-now.
