I saw the passion and great care in his eyes, how he had handled me like a great treasure, and just right there, I knew I could move on from all the hurt and pains that I had been dwelling in, I knew I had found the strength and courage I needed to put those things behind.

I woke up with my head resting on his chest, I could hear his heartbeat as he lay asleep, it was calm and peaceful.

His hands were still carefully wrapped around me, as we both cuddled into sleep, I felt my heart beat according to his rhythm, and like a synchrony, even though I was yet to know what it held, I knew it was the beginning of something new, "the beginning of a new me," the thought of it brought smiles to my

The feeling of being with Carter, the moments we shared, the passion we had for each other - it was all still there, as vivid as ever. I wished the night could have lasted forever, but I knew that was impossible. And yet, I couldn't help but wonder if there could ever be something more between us. I knew my feelings were complicated and messy, but I couldn't deny the connection I had felt with him."Hey babe," Carter said in a low, seductive voice the moment I picked up his call. "Excuse me?" I said, taken aback by his greeting. I didn't like the assumption that we were in a relationship, and his tone was more than a little inappropriate.There was a pause on the other end of the line. "Uh, sorry," he said, sounding sheepish. "I didn't mean to offend you. I just... I just thought that... well, never mind."I could tell he was embarrassed, and I felt a bit bad for him.

    Amihan's POV, My mom's words were simple, but they struck a chord deep within me. She was right - if he couldn't accept me for who I was, then he wasn't the one for me. But the thought of opening up about my past was still daunting."I know it's not easy," my mother continued. "But it's better to be honest from the start. That way, there are no secrets or surprises down the road. And if he does react badly, then you know he's not the right person for you."She was right, of course. But the thought of telling him still made me nervous."How about this?" my mother suggested. "Why don't you try telling him a little bit about your past at a time? Start with something small, like a childhood memory. Then, as you get more comfortable, you can share more. Baby steps, you know?"I thought about her suggestion. Maybe that would be easier, to start small and see how he reacted. And if he was supportive, then I could share more. It might be the best way to ease into it."That's a good idea, Mom
