Days turned into a painful test of patience for Vince. Waiting felt like being trapped, slowly eating away at his mind.

Then he remembered Maia’s real prison — four long years behind bars — while he had only waited a handful of days. For the first time, Vince truly grasped the depth of Maia’s suffering.
