It's a second chance. Which is beautiful, I know. I'm grateful for it.
And for you, too. I'll come see you later. You'll have to be gentle with me though, the bruises are still pretty dark.
It took four months before we could hold hands in public, much less sex parties and recorded evidence. I understand. I ran from that tent because I was feeling overwhelmed by the same thing.
I like it. It reminds me who I am. Teo would have never let you do that.
There was a time I thought it was Hell, when the murders started. But there's too much good for that. I wouldn't have met you, or found hope of real change back home, if it were. I don't know what to believe anymore.

This place is so cruel to you, my darling.

Date: 2025-07-09 01:33 pm (UTC)I think that has to be the case everywhere. This place just tests us more than most.

Date: 2025-07-09 03:30 pm (UTC)Precisely. And so I believe we will be alright.

Date: 2025-07-09 03:40 pm (UTC)I know we will. One way or another, we'll survive.

Date: 2025-07-09 04:16 pm (UTC)It's been an awfully difficult few months for you, my darling.

Date: 2025-07-09 04:26 pm (UTC)I'm trying not to think about it. Wondering what's about to happen to me is making me anxious.
