"Never what, Maria?! People like us we're nobody! Lowlifes, immigrant trash, the shit they scrape off their shoes. He showed us what he thought about us when he killed my brother! Your friend! Without a second thought! Do you honestly think this boyfriend of yours will leave you unscathed? Don't you even care? About Leonardo? About yourself?"
"Of course, I do! But I know Leo didn't give him a choice. He couldn't have. Bucky wouldn't have done it otherwise."
Anita scuffed, "You're blinded in more than one way! You think you're in love."
Flush of humiliation and anger crept up your neck as you blurt, "Don't I deserved to be loved too?! Just because of this," you wave a hand in front of your face, "doesn't mean I don't want someone to speak to me, to touch, to hold me that way. I know what the boys in the Heights think of me. Do you think I couldn't hear them talking behind my back? They say I'm broken, incompletely, or just too much of a hassle," your voice cracked just then, "but not him."
