she called out sharply. Startled by her mom's tone, Karen hurried over to her mother’s side, her curiosity piqued by the urgency in her voice. As she approached and focused on the TV, her jaw dropped to the floor in disbelief at the headlines flashing across the screen. She couldn't fathom what she was seeing, her heart racing as the shocking news unfolded. Karen's heart raced as her eyes scanned the screen, disbelief tightening her chest. The headline flashed again, clearer this time: ‘Billionaire Heir, Liam Danvers Accused of Sexual Assault.’

Our names are not in it yet.

But I also know that lying in the dark pretending I don’t feel what I feel is getting harder every single day and at some point the effort of not saying it is going to cost more than just saying it. I fall asleep somewhere around 2 AM with no decision made and wake up at 7 to six news alerts on my phone. The headlines are worse than I expected. Not dramatic, front page worse.
