"I also gained important things.""Like what?""I learned that justice sometimes does exist. I learned that people can change if they really want to. And I learned that my voice matters, even when I'm the smallest in the room.""Your voice always mattered, Emeka.

Would you really have humiliated me more?"Chief Obinna sighed deeply. "Honestly, I don't know. The man I was at that moment probably would have. But I'm glad I didn't have to find out.
