Lily’s Confession
During the event, I overheard Lily talking to a coworker. ‘It’s hard at home,’ she admitted, her voice quieter than before.
It was the first time I heard her open up about personal struggles. Those words hung in the air, revealing a layer I hadn’t seen.
I paused, wanting to connect more deeply, though respecting her space. Maybe understanding her story could help bridge the gap between us.
