Monsters don’t smile.You weren’t happy for a while, you know that, right?
It was hard. The first few days after you flew in here, you were always worried. Always upset. Upset you might hurt me. Upset that you might knock something over. You said you might scare me if you look at me the wrong way.
Haven’t I told you that never happened?
Sure, I fall over and bump into things accidentally, but they aren’t your fault! They never were.
You said you were a monster.
Just last night, we were out eating and I said something funny to lighten the mood. I don’t know how I did it, but I changed something in you.
You.. smiled. You laughed. It was the first time I saw you smile so wide.
