Part 3

My entire moral code slipped from me as her arms sandwiched me between them and her body. And I felt so safe. There was no other way to describe it. I couldn't understand, however, how she had the power to scare me and sooth me, all at the same time.

Then something clicked inside of me.

The way she was looking at me told me a parable of "Let Me Stay" and I was glad I had looked into her eyes at that moment or I might have missed it. No, I don't think so because…
