Dustin looked at her as she spoke. He didn't know. He didn't know if she was. He didn't know if she wasn't. He just knew he had never met her before. He hadn't even had the oppurtunity to meet her yet. She just hadn't been by and he hadn't been taken to see her. Looking down as she continued. No. Not everyone was like his parents. He knew this. He just had issues trusting people. He had issues letting them in. He had let someone in once. She had left him because her father said he was no good for her. That had added to his difficulty trusting others. The one meaningful relationship he had had...was gone. He listened to her talking. Self torture? He was not sure what she meant by that. He needed to cut to cope when things got too much for him. To him it wasn't torture. To him it was a way to understand his pain. To make sense of things he didn't understand. He really did feel like he was dead inside. He wanted to trust Reni but it was so hard. It was so hard to trust her when he had just met her. Yet a part of him did. He tossed a couple more rocks without saying a word. Thinking over what she said. Class in the morning... Oh right... He had forgotten this was not just boarding house it was a school as well. He finished up after she left and began heading back towards the room. He wasn't looking up until a girl bumped into him and he jumped back before turning into a statue. He looked up to see a girl who had a slight family resemblance to Reni. "Excuse me." He said. He tried to go around her but she kept blocking his path. "I'd really like to get past." He said in a lifeless voice.
