13- The Morning After

  • 23 Jul, 2025

I woke up to sunlight streaming in through the curtains, warm and far too bright for the amount of sleep I got. Everything started to come back to my mind. The video call. Cole. Everything rushed to my mind.

A part of me wanted to overanalyze every second of that conversation, his words, his slurred words, the way he looked at me like I was the only real thing in that chaotic party. But another part of me... was just tired. Tired of feeling things I wasn't supposed to feel. Tired of the confusion. Of the quiet hope I didn't want to admit was still there.

I’m learning, experimenting, and finding my voice as a writer. Fan support will help me invest more time into writing, explore new ideas, and eventually work on longer pieces like short story collections or a novel.
