The sea was always the same.
Blue, a little cool, and filled with something you can never quite put a name to - as if it held both peace and pain.
When I was twelve years old, walking barefoot on the rocks with Leo, I was sure that everything would continue just like that.
I liked him the way I thought no one could ever like anyone. I simply knew - when he was there, I was no longer afraid to look at the horizon.
Years passed. The sea remained unchanged.
Only Leo and I got lost to each other.
I used to think that time erases everything - but coming back here forced me to remember what I wanted most to forget.

It's a sad truth I didn't marry my husband for love. I married him for the life he promised to provide, and if I'm honest with myself, I married him in hopes one day he'd fill the void Lucas-my first love-left behind. Now after so many years, they're both back. And in my desperation to feel loved, to be wanted and chosen I've walked straight into this trap. All because I forgot life's harshest lesson... I'm not enough. No matter how much or how fiercely I love, the choice will never be me. Especially now. Surrounded by danger and at the mercy of my husband's enemies, I'm forced to face one final bit of truth. Much like love, hope is for the weak.
