She whirled into my life at the lowest point in it. As I sat sniffling in the library, trying to loose myself in the endless rows of dusty books she blew in. “Hey there. Hiding?” she said, loud enough for the librarian to glare at us. I simply nod and wonder how she knew. The next thing I saw was her slim hand in my face. I carefully shook her hand before telling her my name. “Oh I know you. I know you’re a wannabe Perfect and I can help.” she whispers the last part, leaning close. I raised an eyebrow. Now was no time to get my hopes up. “How?”, was the single word I spoke before leaning back and folding my arms. She smirked, one side of her mouth dimpling. “I know their secrets.”, was her reply and at that moment I relented. Sighing I stood and stuck out my hand. “Okay.”
