The sequel to 𝕴 𝖋𝖆𝖑𝖑 𝖜𝖍𝖊𝖓 𝖞𝖔𝖚 𝖑𝖊𝖆𝖛𝖊
Back from the mental hospital, and everything still hurts.
The house is quieter. The beds feel colder. The emptiness didn't leave-it just learned how to hide better.
Scarlet Ellis doesn't know how to be okay. Not really. Not when her siblings aren't all under the same roof, not when her thoughts still don't slow down, and especially not when she looks in the mirror and barely recognizes the girl staring back.
But then there's Ruben.
The same boy who once made her feel like the world was a little softer.
The same boy she pushed away.
And maybe, the same boy she's always loved.
Now that she's back, they're learning how to piece each other together again-slowly, carefully, and with every broken part still trembling.
But second chances don't come easy.
And love doesn't always fix the damage-it just teaches you how to survive it.
