Yes, Alicia is that kind of person. She doesn't care what others think of her, she just does what she wants. That's how she helps a lot of people.

Maybe it wouldn't have worked if Alicia hadn't said it, but I felt a little sorry for her and wanted to help her out.

Cather Liz wipes away her tears with her hands and stands up. She gives us a look of determination. She turns up the corners of her mouth. It's not the saintly smile she's always had.
