#Chapter236
/"Look at me … really look at me. It’s all fake. It’s makeup and hair dye and expensive clothes and a fake accent I practised to death. It’s tricks, smoke and mirrors and false confidence. Nothing else. Nothing worthwhile. Nothing real. It’s an act to fool people into thinking I am more than I am./" I get up, wrapping myself up again in my arms and pace away from him, but he darts to his feet fast and follows me, oozing that hostile aura he wears well. It doesn’t even faze me. He’s not the worst thing in the room anymore.
/"That’s bullshit. I didn’t fall for the fake, Cam, I fell for the honesty in you. The person you are when someone gives you a chance to open up—I see that now. The parts that were trying to reach out to me and show me the real her. I fell for her even when I didn’t want to, and that’s who I see every day. That’s who I see now./"
