Bab 79: Taking More Action

I had been staying at Ethan's place for what felt like an eternity, though in reality, it had only been a few days. My mind needed the time to catch up with itself, and being around Ethan made everything feel bearable, almost normal. He had this way of making the world quiet down, the chaos in my head subsiding when he was near. It wasn't just his presence, but his promise—the one where he said he'd take care of everything, that I didn't have to worry. I trusted him, even though deep down, a part of me knew that meant something more than just comforting words.

He wanted to make sure I was good.
