I have been suffocating in my own brokenness for so long. You are the breath of fresh air I have always waited for, yet have never known. - Logan.

39. How to break the healed hearts
(Alexandra)
Alexandra and Stella sat in the overwhelming silence as they stared at the pregnancy kit in front of them, as if it was about to explode any moment now. Their eyes were glued to the words written across the plastic kit -- it was so harmless a word, yet it was also the sword staring straight at them.
Stella was twitching her fingers as she avoided looking at it and then inevitably her eyes would be drawn back to it. Like it was a magnet.
Alex's heart was a mess. She couldn't stop looking. It was as if her eyes were glued.
And she was so very afraid, so very angry.
She knew what it meant.
