“It’s alright, treasure,” I whisper softly, cupping her face in my hand and kissing her tears away as I release the cuff from around her wrist. “It took a lot for you to tell me; I’m proud of you.”

My voice is soft and comforting as I massage her arm and then release the other wrist. Her eyes are glassed over with tears and shining with insecurity.

“Come, treasure. I need you to clean yourself up for dinner.” She sniffles and nods her head, but before she can move off the bed, I wrap my arm around her waist and bring her closer to me
