a girls most vulnerable time during their lives. During this time for me I felt as though I was bad at everything I did. I was not motivated to keep trying the best I could in school, sports, in anything because I did not have the reassurance that if you keep trying or keeping going you will get better.

To be free means to have nobody in control every you and have no restrictions. Lyddie had always been obliged to take care of her sibling when her mom couldn’t. Lyddie had always been the leader of her farm and was the one to feed and take care of the animals. Lyddie was not always to do whatever she wanted because she was considered the ‘mom’ of her family. “Don’t nobody yell,” she said softly. “Just back up slow and quiet to the ladder and climb up to the loft.

” “I mean with my fireteam.” “No, not that. Look.” He pointed at the flashing light that was displaying on the screen. “Looks like you got an incoming transmission. Gonna answer it?” I rolled my chair over and sought to the signal that was being read by our SATcom. I disabled all active broadcasting channels so only I (and technically Paledon) could hear it before I sned it through the Tower’s announcement system. Turning the dials and knobs, the feedback resigned and played through the…

This judgment continues to build and increase to the point it forces a self-imposed isolation on Aparna. Jealousy can lead to isolation, and in this story, it is quite prevalent. As Aparna’s dislike evolves into full resentment, it eventually causes her to stay away from everyone in general. This heartbreak causes extreme emotional distress and leads…
