CHAPTER 188

ARIA’S POVAs I scroll through the TikTok feed and come across a video of the incident.

It’s as if nothing has changed, as if I’m forever trapped in a cycle of not being enough.I sit on the edge of my bed, scrolling through the comments, feeling the weight of their judgement bearing down on me.

The words bl
