A Sin I Couldn't Escape
“The nights I cried alone. The silence that screamed louder than any words. I was scared… helpless…”
Alessandro tightened his hold, letting me rest against him. “I can’t feel it for you, but I can be here. Always. You’re not alone anymore.”
The scream that had escaped me moments ago softened into shaky whimpers. I clutched his shirt, grounding myself in his presence, letting the nightmare slowly loosen its grip. “I… I didn’t mean to scream,” I whispered.
“You don’t have to apologize,” he murmured, pressing a gentle kiss to the top of my head. “You’re allowed to feel, Sofia. You’re allowed to let it out. That’s not weakness. That’s being human.”
