part 34 : healing, not forgetting

After her time away, Fiona returned home

with a renewed sense of clarity. She knew

where she was headed. Her past didn't have

to haunt her; it had shaped her, yes, but it no

longer had control over her. She was no

longer running from herself

Her relationships with Dominic and

Damien remained steady, but now as friends

They respected her choices and her

boundaries, just as she respected theirs

Fiona knew they had their own paths to

walk, just like she did.

And, importantly, she wasn't afraid of her

future anymore. She was open to it, ready

for whatever came next
