"And me, I don't know what to do with myself anymore. I can't figure out how to get us through this–to pick up the thread of working together, to continue our fight. None of it seems possible.

When I read this I felt really bad for Nadira. When she was working with Aisha to make everything better, it seemed like it was all going to work, but now... Everything is falling apart.

Later on Nadira runs into Lily and helps her with her problems and I thought that was really nice of her. I feel bad for Aisha, but I still don't like her that much.
