And suddenly she has had enough. Enough of hiding and enough of pretending. She is not Tiger Girl. She is Tally. She was brave enough to rescue Rupert in the dark and she was brave enough to walk all the way up five flights of stairs and into this hospital room on her very own feet. Tiger Girl doesn't run away and Tiger Girl doesn't flap her hands when she's scared or excited. Tiger Girl doesn't hum songs to herself when everything feels too busy or noisy. Tiger Girl doesn't get angry or upset or hurt because Tiger Girl isn't real. But Tally does all of those things and she is real.
She is here.
And maybe, right now, she can be her.
Just for a few minutes.
