Anne's POV:
I arrived back to the boarding house just as the sun was setting. Everything looked made of gold.
"Diana!" I cried, startled at the sight of my bossom friend in our bedroom.
"Anne." She replied curtly.
"Why are you mad at me Diana?" I asked. No response.
"Diana, please answer me." More silence.
"Diana!"
"Diana! I deserve an answer! You had me worried sick! Tell me why you are mad at me!!"
"Oh you deserve an answer?! You don't deserve anything. People like you shouldn't even exist. It's wrong."
"People. People like me?" I could feel a lump starting to form at the back of my throat.
"Yes Anne. People like you. People who like girls and boys. Disgusting."
I stood there stunned. Di, my dearest and truest friend. My kind hearted kindred spirit thinks this way? Maybe there is something wrong with me. Maybe I am...disgusting.
"I can't stand to even look at you Anne. I'm moving out."
"But- what?"
Di gave me one long last look filled with hatred and left.
I- What just happpened?

"Aunt Jo!" I ran into her arms the second she opened the door. The tears I had been holding back burst out.
Aunt Jo who never shows physical affection wrapped her arms around me and held me tight.
She understood.
"Anne girl, it's going to be okay. You are unique. Wonderfully different then most people. You are beautiful."
The tears wouldn't stop. My heart ached, so much. My bosom friend. My Diana. I can't handle this.
I don't remember how long Aunt Jo held me but eventually she led me upstairs. The last thing I remember is falling asleep not knowing how I could handle the pain.
