Fine? Fine meant not fine. Everyone knew that. She squinted up at Upstead, deciding how she could help. She shrugged when they said people wouldn't like her talking to them. She knew perfectly well that Ashley would be majorly upset if she caught her being nice to them, and probably Mavis, too. Well, and lots of other people, now they mentioned it. Her friends would still like her. Probably. This was fine.
"I don't need everybody to like me," she said. Not a lie, exactly. But...well....she did need some people to like her. Or at least talk to her. She hated being alone. The one good thing about the Room was that she had never been alone. Maybe that's how she could help. "Do...you want company?" |
