Maddie's POV Sitting in Dr. Hernandez's office, the room awash in soft, muted light, I felt a mix of anxiety and relief. It was my first therapy session, and the stories I carried within me weighed heavily on my shoulders. I knew that confronting the demons of my past was the only way to find healing and solace. Dr. Hernandez's eyes held a gentle, empathetic gaze as she encouraged me to speak. "Maddie, I'm here to listen, to help you navigate your experiences. What has been on your mind?" The thought of Ash triggered a swell of emotions. He had been a significant part of my life, a chapter that was bittersweet, filled with love and heartache. "I need to talk about Ash," I began, my voice quivering with the memories. The therapist nodded, her reassuring presence allowing me to continue.
