I'm not as decent as you think, but thank you, Kate. I appreciate your kind words. [ Bela isn't ready for a deep dive into all of the reasons why she's not so decent, and she isn’t even going to touch the shallow comment.]

Is it selfish if the person listening wants to hear about you? Even the not so nice details? I understand wanting to repress some things, because I've been there before. [One day, she'll feel brave enough to share more with her.] I'm staying far away from any vials so you don't need to worry about that.

Whatever you want to do, I'll back you up.
