i supposed i should’ve heeded my mother’s warning, not to open my door to strangers. foolish girl, always too trusting. exposing my heart to him, raw and awaiting, only to have it crushed in the palm of his hand, while he sets it down gently. tell me, how could you blame me for locking my doors now?
