You have sucked me in Texas. When I first moved here I did not like sweet tea, you wouldn't catch me listening to any country song, and I swore I wouldn't be that Californian who moved to Texas and all of a sudden said "y'all".

She didn't. And neither did the people around her. She had to live it. To top it all off, she had to watch her beloved son die a gruesome death. Talk about feeling unseen and undervalued.
