Reading for my midterm and came across this quote. Just had to share it.

People will try to change you, Rhea, Lou goes. Don’t let ‘em.
But I want to change.
No, he goes, serious. You’re beautiful. Stay like this.
But the freckles, I go, and my throat gets that ache.
The freckles are the best part, Lou says. Some guy is going to go apeshit for those freckles. He’s going to kiss them one by one.
I start to cry, I didn’t even hide it.
Hey, Lou goes. He leans down so our faces are together, and stares straight into my eyes. He looks tired, like someone walked on his skin and left footprints. He goes, The world is full of shitheads, Rhea. Don’t listen to them—listen to me.

I am good, but not an angel.
I do sin, but I am not the devil.
I am pretty, but not beautiful.
I have friends, but I am not the peacemaker.
I am just a small girl in a big world trying to find someone to love.Marilyn Monroe -
