Her Toxic Desire
People were walking, talking, and laughing, the rhythm of the city a constant, beautiful song.
I felt a sudden, profound sense of gratitude.
I hadn't just survived. I had transitioned.
I had taken the raw, jagged material of my life and I had, through the slow, agonizing process of living, turned it into something else.
I wasn't a fortress anymore. I was a person. And the world was, for the first time, not a threat to be managed, but a place to be inhabited.
I pulled my phone out. I scrolled to the contact list, my thumb hovering over the name that I had finally, mercifully, dared to keep.
