Then back at me.
Tears filled her eyes.
“I didn’t realize how bad it got.”
I believed her.
Because selfishness often grows slowly.
One excuse.
One entitlement.
One rationalization at a time.
Until people stop seeing what they’re becoming.
Elena squeezed her hand.
And Mia cried.
Really cried.
Not for lost money.
Not for canceled cards.
Not for luxury she no longer had.
For the pain she caused.
