{81} "Her Substance Voice."

"I am a mother, I am a sister, I am an aunt, I am a niece, I am a grandmother, I am a godmother, I am strong, I am beautiful, I am powerful, I am smart, I am love, I am elegance, I am pure, I am resourceful, I am respected; I am woman. Even when I am broken they will not see me cry, I will not give them the power to torment me, they cannot hurt me, I shall remain strong because I am an unbreakable rock, a beautiful priceless diamond... For I am woman." —Icychica_

"You see, the problem that you and I both share is that we are both suckers for things that are broken, if you're not selfish enough Sagwa... you'll end up breaking your own heart because of them."

I jolted awake, my heart beating rapidly and out of control. I couldn't seem to control my breathing either and calm myself down.
