1. ot giving up

Emma

I haven’t moved an inch since Rowan left I felt like the walls were closing in on me and I had no

escape. No way to numb the pain I was feeling inside

Everything hurt and I didn’t even know how to stop it. I didn’t know what to do or how to react

Why was this happening to me? That’s the question I keep asking myself, but there is no ansnes for it. There is no hint on why I was still going through shit even after getting the guys

I feel the trickle of tears as they fall down my face. I hated being weak. I hated crying I rub the tears away angry at myself for letting them fall in the first place

When daddy died, I was broken. I was his princess and he was my hero I didn’t get to spend a lot of time with him because I moved to a different city, but when we did, it was awesome

I thought I wouldn’t recover his death. That there wasn’t a bright side to it. Then Powan and I

talked. He told me that he and Ava were divorced and asked if I could give us a chance

My family had kept me in the loop on things between Rowan and Ava. I knew that despite being

All these things considered, I didn’t understand why right now he was all of a sudden interested in her life. Did my family miss something when it came to them? Something was just not adding up
