Historias de Protectingyourpeace

Some houses shelter you. Others teach you how to disappear. In Part One: Then, Paris is a teenager navigating high school, first love, and loyalty to a family that is quietly unraveling. Inside a house ruled by control and unspoken fear, she learns how to stay alert, how to endure, and how to look steady even when nothing feels safe. What happens there will change her forever. In Part Two: Now, Paris is older-and no longer willing to let the past speak for her. With clarity and distance, she revisits the memories she once survived without understanding. She examines what silence protected, what it cost, and what it took to finally unlearn it. This is not a story about waiting to be saved. It is a story about what happens after survival-about memory, agency, and reclaiming the voice that was once forced underground. The House That Taught Me Silence is a powerful, emotionally layered novel about growing up inside harm, stepping beyond it, and choosing where the story lives next.
