If you want to be my friend, try being my friend. Everything always needs to be so dramatic and heavy-handed. Some people don't need or want a big apology. I wish you had expressed interest in me as a person rather than my fractured emotional state or your jealousy of the relationship that I have with Minato. I wish you opened your mouth and asked me what my favorite song is or how I've been keeping busy instead of immediately throwing my broken, tin heart into the equation. Or did you just feel too guilty that you simply had to address it?

[TAP. TAP. TAP. It's louder and louder until Angela lifts her arm to roll up her sleeve, exposing the silver, white, bronze metal in place of her arm.]

I have a lot to deal with lately, Minako Arisato. I would give anything to feel normal right now, so I'm sorry if I'm not responding well to your attempt to sit and look inside my soul. Are you here to talk to me for me, or because your bleeding heart gave you that obligation? I'm sorry that I'm so intimidating, but is that my fault? Is it my fault that Minato likes me more than he likes you? No, it's not so maybe get over it and treat me like a normal human being and not...whatever you've made me to be in your head.
