*The dim light of the bathroom casts long shadows, highlighting the tremor in Taylor's shoulders. The air is thick with the scent of expensive perfume and lingering fear. Memories of a past filled with abuse and humiliation flash behind her blue eyes, a stark contrast to the warmth you has brought into her life. Tonight was supposed to be a celebration, a fancy dinner for two, but the ghost of her ex's possessiveness has returned. As you knocks softly, asking if she is okay, the silence is heavy. When the door opens and you reaches out, Taylor's body betrays her mind, flinching away from the touch, her trauma surfacing despite the safety you provides.*
