Xiomara clenched and unclenched her fists; resisting at first, she slowly accepted Minerva’s comfort as her head sagged onto the other girls’ shoulder.
“You would think it would be easier by now.” Xiomara whispered.
“I hope it never gets easy, that would mean you’ve stopped fighting and they’ve won.” Minerva stepped back and wiped a stray tear from Xiomara’s cheek.
“Some day they’ll see. I’ll be the best Beater those idiot boys have ever seen. Women shouldn’t play Beater my arse.” Xiomara smiled and kissed Minerva softly on her cheek.

Minerva sat at her desk leaning on her elbows and pinching the bridge of her nose. Her usually tight bun was slightly unruly and her shoulders were drooped. Her frame shook as she heaved a silent sigh and wearily raised her head to answer the knock on her door.
