157 The Holy City IV

This is the first time I've seen Sally this scared. She has dealt with the people I saw today for her entire life. I couldn't imagine living the life she has, over 100 years of this torment from people. It's absolutely ridiculous. "I know you aren't going to be getting much sleep tonight. I wouldn't either if I were you. If you need me to get you anything or help with something, let me know." She doesn't say anything in response. We just lay on the bed in silence. 

I leave my eyes closed and take a small breath. This quest will be difficult to complete, with so many racists making it hard. I'm going to have to be extra diligent. Some people are violent and will try to remove her forcefully. "Can we get a hood for me tomorrow... If people didn't see my ears, they wouldn't tell the difference. I don't want to walk around being stared at and ridiculed all day..." I can easily fulfill that request.
