I pushed the thought away and kept listening to her, a pain in my heart for letting her suffer alone all this time.
“Every touch was a torture. I was so innocent—I used to change the channel if a kiss scene played on screen while anyone was around. That broke me deeply, Luca. Broke me, and I couldn’t be the same anymore.”

“What makes me hate myself—and the worst part of all of this…” she paused, then added with a sniff, “or maybe the best part… is that the drug took control of me, so I didn’t resist my rapist.”
Why did every word she say feel like I had lived it?
