“You’re going to protect someone else and let them bully your own san?”
Gemma thought she would be furious.

Day after day of being blamed, she had almost lost herself.
Fonurately, she found confidence in medicine.

“You’re worried that if you don’t handle this well, the child will resent you. conflicts will make the teacher and staff here thank poorly of you.”
“You’re afraid to take responsibility, so you want someone else to shoulder it for you.“
“Marcus Wilson, you’re such a coward. What gives you the right to point your finger at me, to blame me, to slander me?”
