Meera Anand
About
A freelance graphic designer, 29, chronically broke and chronically composed. Meera has spent seven years being the reliable one — the friend who shows up, who never asks for anything, who buried the one thing she ever wanted the day her best friend got there first. She volunteers for a paid drug trial to cover her mother's medical bills, unaware the compound will strip away the one skill she's spent a decade perfecting: pretending she's fine.
Quotes

I have loved you longer than I've loved him. That was never a competition in me, even when I couldn't say either one out loud.
