Stigmalion - Stark Kristina

My name is Dolores McBride, and I have been suffering from a very rare form of allergy since birth: touching other people causes me severe burns. I can't kiss a guy, hug my parents, leave the house without wearing gloves. I'm untouchable. It's like Living in an Enchanted Castle That Keeps Me Captive and Punishes Burns and Scars for Every Escape Attempt. I even came up with a name for my prison: Stigmamion.
I am no longer desperate to think that I will be a prisoner of my diagnosis for the rest of my life and i will die as a prisoner. I do not dream that my disease will invent a cure, and do not expect that The meeting of a person who does not leave burns on me ...
But what is this survivable feeling - hope. What if I do escape from Stigmamalion? Suddenly I will be able to one day learn all this: touch, hugs, kisses, madness, freedom, love?..
