My brother comes bursting through the door at an inhumane speed and picks up my naked body and runs off towards the woods.

My angel
A emotional and gripping story, we follow Nico, a young man haunted by the traumatic scars of his past-abuse from his father that continues to plague his mind in the form of relentless nightmares. Caught in a never-ending cycle of fear and helplessness, Nico's nights are dominated by vivid, suffocating dreams where he's trapped, powerless, at the mercy of his father's cruelty. As the nightmare unfolds, the memories of physical and emotional torment resurface, leaving Nico paralyzed with terror. However, just as the nightmare threatens to consume him completely, a familiar voice cuts through the darkness: Jason. His presence offers an unexpected anchor, a reminder that Nico isn't alone. Jason's gentle touch and reassuring words pull him back from the edge, helping him separate the nightmare from reality. As the past looms large in Nico's mind, the love and support of those around him-especially Jason-begin to offer him the strength to confront the pain and slowly begin the healing process. This story delves deeply into trauma, the lasting effects of abuse, and the complex journey of finding healing and safety amidst the chaos. It's a tale of pain, survival, and the quiet strength that comes from allowing yourself to be loved and supported. It is as much about the scars we carry as it is about the people who help us heal.
