Confrontation... I lost

I entered the infirmary with my head held high... and then I crumpled to my knees within my heart.

Grand Martial Aunt was smiling... at Hairy.

I felt as if a thousand mud horses rumbled on top of the mini-me inside my heart.

It's okay, self-esteem. It's okay. Just because Grand Martial Aunt hasn't smiled at you, doesn't mean you're not incompetent... yes. Yes, you are.
