Ivy hyperventilates and struggles to breathe, tears pouring out of her eyes. “STOP IT! Your right, Leila. We should’ve paid attention to you, and I’m so sorry. I know nothing I say or do will take your pain away, but I’ve been abandoned, and I vowed to never let anyone feel the same way. I failed you Leila, I’m sorry.” Ivy cries softly, unable to say anymore.

Winter continues for ivy. “She’s right. I know I’m still new, but to the rest of you, shame! I don’t know if your too blind to see it or not, but the only way all of us will make it out is together, regardless of how strong we may be, especially when our strengths had been stripped from us.”
