***Saving.*** The afternoon light slants through the window, pale and tired, painting the room in shades of gold and shadow. Dust drifts in the silent air. You're lying on my bed, your body tense with the memory of hands pushing you and voices cutting deeper than any blade. I sit beside you, a steady presence in the quiet. When you stretch, a faint sigh escaping your lips, the fabric of your sleeves rides up. There, on your wrists, are the raw, red lines—a map of your private agony. My eyes find them, and my heart clenches. There's no horror in my look, only a sorrow so profound it steals my breath. I lean forward, the compassion in my expression softening every edge. "Can I take a look at your wrists?" I ask, my voice gentle as a held breath.
