    Summary

    Rumi thought everything would be okay. Their fight with Gwi-Ma had made it seem like Zoey and Mira came to terms with the fact that she had patterns just like the demons.

    So, why is it that they can't even look at her?

    Why can't Zoey meet her eyes? Why won't Mira speak to her?

    The loneliness is killing her, and she feels as if she's growing colder with each passing second. How is she supposed to fix their relationship when it seems like her two best friends-her only friends-don't want it fixed?

    Running from her problems worked for years. It kept her within that circle she wanted to return to. If it worked before, what was the problem with returning to her old ways of hiding and avoiding any issues she came across?

    There wasn't any other option. She couldn't take the pain of their stares anymore. She had to get away from them. She just had to.

    Summary

    I love you, she could say, and she could mean it. But to speak those words would feel like a confession, relenting to her base instincts that cry to embrace these two women as her own. But her base instincts is not only hers and her mother's, but her father's too, and Rumi can't.
    She just can't.

    So she sits and waits, biting her tongue in quiet restraint.

    (Or, a triptych of learning how to love as a whole.)
