My panic started to rise, when Nana's voice calmed me, Do not overthink. Go one step at the time. Be brave for one second. These three lines always help, like my mind just ignores the panic. I am brave. With that I was on my way to school. Getting out of my car, I was greeted by Anna and her fellowship. This is just what I needed to help with my anxiety. One day I will stand up to her, just not today.

“Rudy called this morning. I have to go back to Chicago to meet with my publishing house to sell them the new ending for the book.” I let go of her hand only to trace the bare skin of her leg. My fingertip traces over the soft skin of her knee. “Do you plan on coming back?” I ask hoarsely. Before she can say something else, I add, “Or am I getting a second shot at seeing you in Chicago?” My finger drifts higher up, caressing her inner thigh. Her eyes flutter shut at the touch—or maybe it’s from my words—either way, it doesn’t matter. We aren’t falling apart at the thought of a little distance between us. That’s what matters.

Because I wanted it. That’s the part I don’t let myself name. Not fully. Want is the first step to losing distance, and distance is the only thing that keeps me alive. I push away from the door and cross the room in measured steps, forcing my breathing to match the rhythm of my feet. The lamp on the central table casts its circle of light like an interrogation. Outside it, shadows cling to the cabinets, swallowing the aisles.

gone is the chaos from earlier. gone is the noise.gone is the anger and confusion and the sting of other people judgment. what passes between us now is different. Warm. Quiet. dangerous but not the kind of danger that comes from storms or strangers or accusations hurled into the night.its the kind that comes from proximity from honesty from the truth settling into place after being pushed aside for so long. my knee presses lightly against hers.she doesnt move away.if anything she shifts the slightest bit closer not enough to be obvious but enough for me to feel the heat of her settling into the space between us.

He lived neatly archived in memory — a finished chapter, a scar I had learned not to touch. And yet. My fingers hovered over the keyboard, heart betraying the calm I’d built so carefully. I didn’t reply. I shut the laptop. I told myself it was coincidence. A cruel joke. A line anyone could have written. But ghosts don’t knock. They wait. ZANE Letting go doesn’t mean disappearing. It means choosing distance with intention — until distance stops being enough. I hadn’t planned to reach out. I’d lived years inside restraint, discipline, silence so complete it became identity.

“Do everything in life, Alex. But do not push a good woman away because of sheer stupidity. I'm out of here,” The look on his face is almost indescribable. Shock, definitely. Maybe more. I don't stick around to find out, I spin. “Tamara,” he calls after me. I don't stop walking. I don't think I can take anymore of this argument. It’s suffocating in here. I need space, I need air. I need silence. I didn't dare look back and Alex is mercifully not following. I walk out, not rushing but not exactly calm either. I can feel Alex's eyes burning holes in my back.

The edge softened slightly. Still there. But manageable. He moved closer again. This time— He didn’t stop himself. His hand came to the table. Close to mine. Not touching. Deliberate. “You’re saying proximity matters,” he said. “Yes.” “Then distance solves it.” “No.” That answer came immediately. Firm. He blinked slightly. “Explain.” I closed the notebook. Set it down. Looked at him fully. “Distance changes the condition,” I said. “It doesn’t remove it.”
