David hated perfection.

He hated how his family strived so hard for it.

He found it.

David found it. He found a place he could go to get away from it all.

He was managing.

He wasn't living, but wasn't dying either.

Then things changed.

Ellie was his change. Ellie taught him to live.

She was beautiful.

Ellie was a girl, and she was beautiful.
