Quote by Caitlin Garvey

“I took out my anger on my hair when Momma had none. Momma was dying, and her body was destroying itself from the inside out—and I didn’t want to live in a body that was healthy, or with a head full of hair, if she couldn’t have that, too. If her body was collapsing, I wanted to destroy mine.”

The day of the storm, Dia had broken beyond saving. Therefore, even if she wanted to escape from there due to being unable to stand it, she would always end up returning and knocking on the door of revenge. It was like a nightmarish maze. Each time, she would be struck by the brutality and ugliness of herself as she tried to ruin herself—it was like seeing a monster in the mirror.”
