Chapter 388: Assurance

Olivia’s POV

I had to tell them. I couldn’t keep swallowing it down, pretending like I was fine, pretending like what happened didn’t still haunt me every single day.

"I know," I whispered, my voice trembling. "I know we were supposed to leave everything behind. To move forward. To heal. But I can’t. Not fully."

Their eyes stayed on me, heavy and piercing, but I pressed on, because if I stopped, I’d break.

I shook against him, my fingers clutching the fabric of his shirt. "I know... I know you say that. But I’m still scared."
