Upon hearing Joshua's question, Emanuele feels her body lean forward, almost as if the "yes" is already implied. But her mind wanders long before she finally manages to answer: "H-how are you going to do this?" A slightly arrogant smile draws itself on his thick lips. "Don't underestimate my talents." My goodness. The girl stares for seconds at his mouth, so close they could kiss at any second. What would it be like to feel pleasure without losing your virginity? Was there a way to do that? She swallows her shame and asks once more: "But... I'm serious. How are you going to do this?" Joshua raises one of his eyebrows. "No one has ever touched you? Have you... Never touched yourself?" "No." They are silent for a few seconds. Joshua thinks that's funny, but he doesn't laugh. Not least because that could send a completely wrong message to her. The man slides his hands to her waist, holding her firmly. Then he faces her and says very slowly: "I am going to stimulate you, your

The redhead says nothing, but feels her heart racing. Although he doesn't name names, Emanuele knows he is talking about the family member, the man who tormented him so much that the after-effects were still present more than forty years later. And as if that were not enough, this man would take longer to die than expected.Not that she believed that with the death of Joshua's abuser, he would get better or overcome his internal adversities. That healing was personal, and if he didn't make an effort, it would be a vain struggle. To depend on external factors to get rid of that pain was useless and even dangerous.Joshua is trembling. Anger? Fear? Emanuele says:"You don't have to talk about it if you don't want to.He looks at her with such intensity that it almost hurts."I have to."The man simply gets up and props himself up on the bed. Soon after, he lies down under the fluffy pillows and places Emanuele beside him. The two of them are looking up at the ceiling and smelling each o

Two paramedics were looking down on her, with their white uniforms and medical instruments she didn't know the names of. Frowning, it took Emanuele a while to figure out where she was. The first thing she noticed besides the strangers examining her was that she was lying on a stretcher. The second thing was that she was no longer on the street, surrounded by curious people, buses, trees, and birds. The third thing was that her nose hurt like it was broken. And it probably was. The rest of my body hurt too. It felt like a truck had run over her several times. Her lungs were burning when she breathed, and her throat wasn't so good either. My God, she really wasn't born for this. Still trying to reorganize her thoughts and wondering where she was, the girl saw that next to her a handsome and concerned young man was holding her hand. He was answering the questions the doctors were asking, but she couldn't understand them. Maybe she needed some stronger medication. Maybe they were for

Johnny gently wipes another layer of ointment over Emanuele's bruised skin. The girl shivers slightly when the boy's fingertips touch her wounds. He apologizes and tries to soften the impact of the contact, but there is not much he can do. The cuts will hurt for at least a few days before they close, and compared to the pain of the broken nose, that was nothing.As the girl was about to begin her account of her life, the thoughtful young man interrupted her and decided that she had better take her medication, including the ointment. Now, for example, the former bride swallowed a painkiller.After the whole procedure was over, the girl closed her eyes and lay back down next to Johnny. It was the first time she would tell all, at least briefly, about what it was like to live with the monster she once called her mother.Emanuele begins by talking about her father. She had never met him, but she knew that he was still alive somewhere. This conclusion was the result of a little research on

Had the pain of the movement not been unbearable, Emanuele's chin would have fallen a couple of feet to the ground.Johnny's smile didn't waver at any moment. The girl had always found him attractive, but she had never correlated the boy's friendliness and affection with a spectacular body. In fact, the attraction she felt for him was more for his character than his physique.She was completely naked in the bathtub. Would he come in completely naked too?As if reading her thoughts, Johnny put both hands on her waist."Of course I'll need to get rid of these first," he argued, pointing to the boxer briefs.The honey-haired girl suddenly became breathless. Not from nervousness, as she thought she would be, but... Of anticipation. She felt very comfortable around him, and after all the genuine understanding and forgiveness coming from him, this seemed an understandable step to take on the relationship track.Joshua was an older man who needed understanding and support. Even if there was
