ANOTHER LOVE💫✨️❤️
What do you do when the one person you're not supposed to want starts feeling like the only person who sees you? In an empty hallway, my story quietly began... There were rules I was bound to obey not because I chose them, but because my mother and I couldn't afford what breaking them would cost. But I fell for him anyway. And suddenly, even standing near him felt like crossing a line i didn't know I was breaking. Because whatever this is between us... it isn't supposed to exist. And someone else already decided he was never meant to be anyone's but hers. So i stopped asking if I should love him and started wondering what it would cost me to keep going.
