“I have an accent in every language,” that sht was deep. I felt that.

[@spidersofvenus]

How she repeats "I am 20" is really powerful because she seems so grown up and also like a small child at the same time, like she never really got a chance to grow up or be a child

[@Mazzaaaaaaaa]

Never felt a comment so much🙏🏾

[@SciFi_Soup]

Strong words from a very intelligent and obviously gifted young woman. Alhamdullilah.
