Capítulo 108: Can’t Handle The Pain

CASSIE

I forgot all about it, you know? I pushed it out of my mind for five whole years. But now that it's all come rushing back, I don't know if I can handle this pain anymore.

"Open your eyes, Cassie."

No! I won't do that, Theo. I don't want to do it, damn it!

"Cassie, please," he said again.

As the seconds ticked by, I heard him let out a sigh, which immediately caught my attention.

"Alright, I get it. I'll give you some space... for now," he said gently before finally exiting the room.

I breathed a sigh of relief as I heard the door open and close, knowing that he was gone. I took a moment to compose myself before finally opening my eyes.

I found myself staring up at the plain white ceiling of the room, contemplating whether to get up or stay seated.

"Well, it's good to see you're doing better, Cassie."

My eyes widened and snapped towards the direction of the voice.
