She wished she could do the same, spend the holidays with her family but her father thought it would be best to avoid home visits for a while as she had only just arrived. He didn't want her to long for home but find a new one on Manta Carlos.
Her faced turned cold at that question. She didn't want to talk about home aloud, let alone to someone she just met. It would make her look pathetic, weak. Children wanted to run back home when going off into the world, not young women. No, she needed to let go of those childish behaivours and stay strong. She didn't need parents to help her or anyone for that matter. Though, even when she convinced herself of this, there was still that feeling buried under the facade and lies. "I don't want to talk about it," she snapped as she got up and walked over to the window. She didn't want to maintain eye contact.
