Humans are more like plants then we like to think.
After months or years without being noticed or loved we tend to change, we stop trying to please others by how we act and branch off.
After being ignored, hurt and used for so long we seem to slowly wilt.
But that's not the case for Ella Kingston.
The girl who seems completely fine.
The girl who would rather be alone then being with others.
The girl who has left her emotions locked in a box in her mind.
"The girl, that secretly yearns for someone that'll understand her."
No. She'll keep that last thought to herself, in that growing box, in her head.
After all, the schools loner would never admit that she wanted a friend.
