““I sat there terrified. Why would anyone accept some random hug. I'd never accepted a random hug in my life. And never would! Actually no. What the fuck. Who am I to deny. I'd take the first one offered by anyone right now--even if I saw the person holding a giant knife behind his/her back. Even if the person ended up stabbing me, I'd take a deep breath and put my mouth by his or her ear and say, "I knew you'd do this. I knew it, sweetheart. And, well I still thank you for the hug." I turned the page.””
