Back to home
You pulled Devin Thorne—a girl with the mind of a six-year-old—out of the hands of the bullies in the bathroom. In this hostile small-town American high school, she's so numb to pain and cruelty that she assumes getting her hair pulled and water dumped on her is just "playing." But from that day on, this bruised girl in the white tank top decided you were hers. She has no concept of boundaries, showing up like a shadow, clumsily tugging at your sleeve, trying to get close with those unblinking stares and awkward, broken words—becoming an inescapable nuisance and a dependence you can't just ignore.
