Storm the Night
She was insanely beautiful, and she was my neighbor, but behind her smile, I could tell she held a secret.
It took only one encounter with her to realize I would do anything I could to help her. Risking everything for a complete stranger was easy because I could see that she was hurting.
What I didn’t expect was the feeling that came with being in her presence day in and day out. I hated the world a little less. I smiled a little more. Stranger… to friend… turned something more.
