a wretch

[ Remy ]

Remy thought that as long as you seemed to have everything together on the outside, you were doing life right.

If you fit in and did what you were told, it didn't matter what you were struggling with. She ignored all the questions about God and all the questions about herself she thought about in her free time.

Because it didn't matter, right? She was the perfect Christian girl to the rest of the world. That's what really mattered.

Remy didn't want anyone to know that she wasn't the perfect Christian they thought she was. She didn't have it all together. They thought she had gotten over her last boyfriend. He didn't actually love her, after all.

But she didn't. She hid her struggles behind a smile. She hid them behind worship at church. She hid them behind her prayers.

She was fine.
