Love, Like Wild Grass - ตอนที่ 8

In a school corridor a bully orders Yves to do all the cleaning and taunts him for having no parents. Yves's sister intervenes, tells the teacher she will protect Yves until he's eighteen, warns she'll act aggressively and asks to be informed of any trouble. The scene cuts to the narrator's senior year when Willow graduates and starts an internship. Willow pulls all‑nighters for a full‑time chance, endures a coworker's patronizing head pats, and insists she's not a child. Everything seems to be moving forward, but being treated like a child now threatens her bid for a full‑time job.
