บท 61: Chapter 61: Roxana

What a strange day. From my sparring match with the kid to working with Jason and Track, who was full of surprises, and now sitting here at the big family-style dinner with everyone who seems to have accepted me in their midst without question. Most surprising for me was the way they let their kids, especially their daughters, just hang around me.

One minute I wanted to yell at them for being so careless, and the next, I wanted to break into tears at their acceptance. I’ve kept myself away from polite society because one of the things I’d come to accept about myself is that no one with any real value would want to be associated with someone with my past.
