"You are not allowed to take Luke down with you and you are certainly not allowed to deny the help everyone is offering you because you are too damn selfish and prideful to get up and ask for help to move on from what has happened to you." I looked at the frail girl in front of me, not recognizing her at all as the tears streamed down my face rapidly.
