Summary

I am a broken Doll. I crack but do not smile. I am programmed. I am told I am broken. I am told I am different.

"But mommy I don't LIKE this doll anymore!"

I watch a small girl fling her toy doll onto the sidewalk. Its arm breaks and skitters into the street. "I want a new one! I want a new one!" I stare at the broken doll on the street, its face painted with a smile. A smile that never goes away. Even in the darkness, she will smile.Yin contemplates what it means to smile, and takes fledgling steps toward her own free will. As always, those steps lead to one person: Hei.
