Chapter 15: The Future That Was Mine
Chapter 15: The Future That Was Mine
Years later, I returned to that hill overlooking the ocean.
The same place where everything had changed.
The waves rolled in, steady and endless.
But I was different.
Stronger.
Whole.
I touched the sapphire pendant resting against my chest.
Not as a reminder of fear…
But as a symbol of survival.
Of choice.
Of power reclaimed.
I smiled softly.
Because now I understood something completely.
The last name I once hid behind…
Was never what made me strong.
I did that on my own.
May you like
And the life I built?
No one could ever take it away again.
