[ It's fine if he doesn't want to believe her, but hilariously enough. . . she didn't lie about a single bit of what she said. She doesn't have a bad life at all in the slightest bit; she has friends, family. No tragic backstory at all.

Well, you assumed wrong. I have no tragic backstory, sorry to tell you. Were you expecting one? Because reality isn't like fiction. You can't just fucking expect every single person you meet to have some pain or tragedy like you're thinking. And more importantly? I'm not weak in any way.
[ Does not take that hand, however; it's not as if she was knocked down or anything, after all. ]
