I developed an insane amount of control, the control that I lacked when I blew up at Tiff. I thought words over before I said them, and I identified what I was feeling before displaying the emotions in a healthy and appropriate manner. It didn't mean that my smiles were fake, it just meant that they were precisely calculated. Just because I was genuine, it didn't mean that I wasn't acting.
