This is a confession.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqq71keO5z1

Not mine—

but hers.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7nLXdpeHK

Mila doesn’t go out.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINxemu9iHZ

Not because she’s not allowed to.

Not because she doesn’t have places to go.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlEpolQi6a

She just… doesn’t.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxU4n1VALn

She finished school. She even completed university.

People think that means she’s normal.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mgAPPXQ34

But they don’t see her when the doorbell rings.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGbFyCo9bx

When guests come home, Mila sits quietly.

She only speaks when they ask her something.

One-word replies. Small nods.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAfZs3HevI

Nothing more.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMhLTXeMaC

Her parents notice.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIYnqtWXAc

It’s there in the way they look at her—

worried… tired… sometimes even irritated.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDO6AGE17q

They ask her to go out.

To meet people.

To “live a little.”

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObf6gzoCq8

She tries.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡED7x41hLjY

But the moment she steps outside,

it feels like the world is too loud… and she is too small.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WvQVwTAxg

Phone calls are worse.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBUu43Kigj

When it rings, her heart starts racing.

Her hands freeze.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGuHSxwQ1aF

She walks quickly to her parents.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVQ6kWPBSd

“Please… you answer.”

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJjsyvHhCj

Even when they insist,

even when they’re busy—

she just can’t.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgyGti9tNq

And her father…

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrY5yoC1Db

No one really understands that part.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyODvKkW8cB

She wants to speak.

She tries.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOPOJwMfO6

But the words disappear before they reach him.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ihyVzc9BP

It’s not that she doesn’t want to.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpQs4Q146K

She just… doesn’t know how.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dfjNzS4DA

There’s nothing visibly wrong with Mila.

No illness. No reason.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0AUuMzxvtY

At least, that’s what everyone says.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2VXIVEtTsy

So here it is—

a confession about her.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4eCaHw0RA

She is afraid of something

she cannot explain.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpJuIAhdzH

And no one knows why.

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4N5EgMWzKo

Tell me…

165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNeKxgMGlK

What is wrong with Mila?165Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uC0PPwokx
