“Who do you think you are? Is it too much to ask for a cup of coffee? You’re a woman, aren’t you? What do you think you’ll do once you’re married? I shouldn’t have to call for you all day long just to get a glass of water! You’re pretty stuck-up for someone with grades like yours.â€� My father said to my mother, “What’s wrong with her? She used to be a good girl. It’s your fault she turned out that way. All she does is sulk.â€� My mother’s face turned deathly pale. I witnessed all of this through the wide-open door of my parentsâ€� room. “She takes after her aunt,â€� my mother said. “You know as well as I do how stubborn and empty-headed that younger sister of yours is. Besides, it’s not like I had her alone. Why do you blame everything on me?”

“Once upon a time, I believed I could be like the heroes in those fairytales. Be the man who rides in on a magnificent fucking unicorn and saves the day, sweeps the princess off her feet and lives happily ever after. But that just isn’t in the cards for a guy like me.”

When that happens, I have no choice but to draw, even while driving.â€� “Why do you talk like that?â€� He was always criticizing me for not sounding more like his mother or older sister. “Why can’t you just say, ‘I feel like drawing, so I have to draw.â€� I think you like it when I can’t understand you.”
