“Once every month, you’ll bleed for a few days. It’s called menstruation. I’ll show you how to deal with it.”
“Every month?” Mako said. “For the rest of my life?”
“That’s how the Shaka made us.”

“Who knows?” Her mother shrugged. “I don’t think he likes women very much.”

The centipede wriggled itself upright and raised its head to look at her. The four glyphs that made up Oda’s motto shimmered on its segmented back.

"I’ll never work up the nerve again. She’ll wrap me up in her sister fantasy like before, and I’ll settle into it like I always do. And I’ll go on living like that, finding one excuse after the other, longing for death but never daring to face it, hating myself a little more every day."
