Noe
It's me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me
At teatime, everybody agrees

Noe was a little worried about Jude.
Okay, fine, she was a lot worried about Jude.
After all, the poor kid had just lost his dad. No matter how crappy a father Harper had been, he was still Jude's only father. Having lost her mother, Noe could relate.
And aside from that, as far as Noe knew, Jude's moms and brother were AWOL. His best friend had left him after emotionally cheating on him. And she rarely saw him out with anyone other than her. It really seemed like he was all alone save for the Carpenter family, and as much as Noe adored him, she figured that couldn't be the healthiest way to deal with his grief.
So their little meet-ups? Absolutely the most important part of Noe's week.
Today, she hurried along, bundled up in a parka, gloves, and a hat with a fuzzy little ball on top that wasn't, strictly speaking, a necessity - it wasn't that cold - but was too cute to leave behind. Mika had twined herself around the girl's neck, for all the world looking like a thick, black necklace if not for the bright eyes shining out from under Noe's hair. This would be her first time meeting Jude, and the mata mata had picked up on Noe's myriad feelings about her best friend.
Spotting Jude in the crowd, Noe waved a gloved hand and shouted his name, pushing through the throng until she arrived at his side. "Heyyyyy," she grinned, looping her arm through his and pulling a spare set of gloves from her pocket. "Here, before your fingers fall off."

I'll stare directly at the sun, but never in the mirror
It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero
