3 Quotes by Audrey Francis-Plante

I was twelve years old that year. She will be seventeen years old every year.

(...) had she known I’ve never felt the pressure of the wind, the smack of a punch, the warmth of my mother’s kiss, and had she known all that, maybe she wouldn’t have sent me to detention that day. But eventually, her words sink into my gut and I realize she could’ve sent me somewhere worse.

According to my birth certificate, I'm seventeen years old.
