Petra paused on the steps, drawing in a deep breath of open air, letting it fill her lungs slowly, deliberately, as though trying to wash away everything that had lingered inside the building behind her."It's done," Oscar said quietly.She nodded, though she knew better than to believe closure was that simple. Still, something inside her loosened, some small, tightly wound thread finally beginning to unravel now that the fear had a face and a name attached to it.The fear no longer floated without a name.**********Three months passed.Petra slipped back into her routines with careful intention. Work filled her days, but not in the frantic way it once had, the pace of it steadying rather than consuming her the way it had in those first raw weeks after the parking lot.She walked into boardrooms without bracing herself.
