Yvan’s presence seemed to plummet with the weight of a leaden sky when he heard Matilda’s plea for mercy. Gripping her chin firmly, he spat out each word with venomous force, “Matilda, you don’t get to call it quits until I say it’s over!”

When that day came, she knew the world would no longer have a place for her.
