Nora Hayes learned early that softness was expensive. It cost you dignity. It cost you control. And worst of all, it made people believe they were entitled to pieces of you just because you felt something. So she became sharp instead. Not cruel. Not heartless. Just precise. Independent.

They didn't see the rules she lived by, the careful distance she kept between herself and anything that could make her need someone else. Then there was Theo Walker. Not loud. Not forceful. Not trying to fix her. Just patient in a way that made her uncomfortable. Kind in a way that felt dangerous. Present in a way she never asked for and didn't know how to refuse. Nora wasn't soft until Theo. And that was exactly why she left first.
