“I often wonder what that day in February was like, the last day you saw me. Did you leave in the dead of night so you wouldn’t be caught?

Because of you, I laughed at Chinese jokes to show I wasn’t one of THEM. I was an outcast in the only world I knew and exiled from the world where I belonged.”
