The Price Of Her Mercy
“You’re scared of not mattering, not belonging. The room went silent, even the house seemed to stop breathing and my hands curl into fists. “You think I'm jealous of you?”
“I think you’re jealous of a future you can’t control,” she replied, voice steady now. too steady. “You think the higher I rise, the further I'll get from you.”
I step closer. “Are you?” But she didn’t back away, didn’t answer and somehow, that destroyed me more than a fight ever could have. I felt every insecurity I'd buried clawed its way back to the surface. Every mistake, every failure, every time I’d let her down, hurt her, doubted her.
