Kamilah had always been the only person who never tried to change him. She’d seen him and accepted him exactly as he was. When they were little, she would defend him to anyone who dared criticize him, like a warrior princess. After the accident, she never tried to make him feel bad for his pain, anger, or depression. He was the one who hadn’t been able to handle the idea of continually disappointing her like he did everyone else, so he’d pushed her away. Even after that she didn’t try to change him. She let him be.
