Chapter 20 START BUT NEVER FINISH

I scrolled down from the the search bar of my laptop for before clicking on the images tab. Hundreds of pictures of dirtied, small children pop up, consuming my entire screen. I click one, and then the next, and then another.

It was the only thing that made sense. Though it just added a million more problems of an already problematic equation.

How did you become one?
