Summer looks up from her book and freezes. \u201cYou \u2026 aren\u2019t Flyte.\u201d To that self-evident remark, eyebrows high on her face, she adds, \u201cWho are you?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

“That\u2019s not fair,” she objects, sitting forward. “Sometimes they think that if they treat you like before, things will go back \u2014 but sometimes they just don\u2019t see. You curl yourself inside, you yourself hide the changes,” more pensively, “you go back to the old behaviours even when they aren\u2019t really you anymore. That helpless kneejerk response to, oh, parental authority, when you\u2019ve been an adult for ages, but you can\u2019t forget when you were a child.”<\/p>\n

Summer blinks a few times, seeing the past, eyelids flickering. \u201cSometimes you have to force them to see the change.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

“Remember that I have been living a lie for most my life. Very few people knew of what I really was and I wasn\u2019t one of them. Even people I trusted, who knew what I really was, they want everything to go back to the way it was. In reality it won\u2019t work as they will still try and believe that the lie I lived was the truth.” He gazes up to the ceiling. “It may not be fair but in the end that\u2019s life. You may remember your times before the change happened, but you always notice differences and realise why they acted differently towards you compared to others.”<\/p>\n

A small sigh is emitted. \u201cSometimes you do, but it does not always work.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Very, very gently, she says, “I try not to assume. You might be different from Flyte. Your … past. But you aren’t, are you. It’s the same, mostly the same for you.” She blows out a breath, rubbing her hands over her face. “But you — you’re even more tangled than he is. You didn’t take that time to — I don’t know what he did. Before us. But he’s all swirls and loops and elegance and you — you’re just knots. Knots and tangles.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
