The girl was very thin and we both had short Chanel hair, but she had bangs framing her green eyes. Anyway, when I got close, my dog started to bark at them.

She liked my ballet outfits, my pointe shoes. She was, like, dazzled, you know? She loved all that stuff. So we said we would meet again at the park some other time, and that was it.

My mom used to say that when Cat came over to our house, she barely heard her speak. And yeah, Cat was very closed off in front of others. Like when my mom made us dinner, Cat was always very quiet at the dinner table.

Kat's house was the most humble one in her block, like by far. There was only one bathroom and it was super tiny. The rooms were also very small. The room that Kat shared with her sister had two small beds, some shelves and a little TV.

But she was also very, very strict. Like if Kat had to be home at 9 and it was like 9.01 and she wasn't home, her mom would call her house complaining that Kat hadn't left.
