Chapter 57. Jagged Piece

LATA

January 23rd, xxxy

If Captain Sandcastle could see her now, he will shake his head and tell her what she is about to do, why she is suspecting the girl is unrighteous. He will tell her that she should be patient, that this environment is different for the girl.

He will tell her to understand, to be her friend, to reassure her that life might be a bitch but when you need it to, it will guard you till its last breath.

Lata doesn't know whether that analogy is correct or an oxymoron. If life guards you till its last breath, doesn't that make you dead? Soulless?

You'd think for runts who have been unsupervised
