Hence, no one ever asked her to join them for a meal. They acted as if she was a plague and distanced themselves from her.

Amelia was, in effect, a frightened bunny living amongst a pack of wolves in the wildest rainforest.

Yet, Casper inspired a different emotion within her. His sincerity and warmth filled her, even though he was just being a good friend.

He got nervous when he saw her crying again. She’s not going to jump into the lake and try committing suicide again, is she?

“No, no. I’m just really glad to have met you,” said Amelia.
