Luiza It’s awful to keep dwelling on something you truly want to do but are too scared to attempt. I longed to run out of my room and back into Felipe’s arms, yet I felt paralyzed, uncertain of what was holding me back. I love him—I know I do—but something stops me from being upfront.

Despite knowing I couldn’t, I decided to push those thoughts aside. I needed to focus on myself and my mental well-being, which hasn’t been easy lately. I concentrated on the party happening tonight.
