Jessica's hand shook uncontrollably as she gripped the paring knife.
The man beside her slept deeply, completely unaware.
She couldn't bring herself to lower the blade.
At sixteen, she'd been accepted by recommendation into Riverside Media Institute, arriving in a city where everything felt unfamiliar.
Though Ines supported her and helped her secure a scholarship, Jessica refused to be a burden. At night, she'd set up a small stall in the park, selling paper-cut art for a bit of money.
One night, business was slow and she stayed out later than usual, only to be cornered by a group of thugs who nearly assaulted her.
She couldn't speak, not even to cry out for help, but Timothy-passing by— noticed something was wrong and intervened.
He chased off the gang and called the police, who soon dragged the troublemakers away.
All these years, she'd never forgotten the way he appeared beneath the streetlight, almost otherworldly, bringing with him a kind of awe she'd never known.
