I stood behind him and stared at his broad back. My heart hurt. I thought that after four years, I had finally come to terms with everything, and that I was okay. Apparently, the pain had only been deeply concealed.

He hugged me and patted me on the back, as if coaxing a child. "I know. Just get some rest, everything will be okay."
