   Summary

   But she doesn't know if she'll ever get used to strangers looking at her like they know her. Like they hate her. For something she didn't orchestrate or execute.

   It's degrading and, frankly, depressing, and it's harder on some days than others to get past it.

   But she does. Because Tara loves her, and tells her that. Mindy makes it a point to stand close to her and link their arms when they're out in public, and Chad often slings an arm around her shoulders and says, "Don't listen to any of these chucklefucks, Sam, they couldn't survive a fraction of what we have."

   And it helps, on the hard days. The shitty days.
