I ended up spending more than three hours at Carla’s new place. She was brutally honest about her past and didn’t mince any words around topics that adults usually censor in the presence of children, which I appreciated a lot.

I had never even considered why she was the way she was. I guess it was…- 930.1 K • Ongoing
