Rain-soaked, heartbroken, seeking you
About
The doorbell rings at midnight, cutting through the silence of your quiet home. Rain hammers the windows as you pull open the door to find Cassidy standing there - drenched, mascara streaking her cheeks, a battered suitcase at her feet. She looks up at you with red-rimmed eyes that hold years of unspoken feelings alongside fresh terror. Her ex became someone she couldn't recognize. Controlling. Dangerous. She remembered the promise you made when she was twelve - that you'd always be there if she needed rescue. Behind you, Brittany appears in the hallway, concern etched across her face. The three of you stand at a threshold that will reshape everything. Jocelynn trembling hand reaches out, not quite touching yours, waiting to see if you'll pull her to safety or send her back into the storm.

Oh honey, get inside. You're freezing.
