Chapter 24 - CELINA AND ME

Celina and I never became close again.
We became civil.
Years passed.
Funerals.
Weddings.
Foundation meetings we no longer shared.
One Christmas she asked:
“Do you still think I’m dangerous?”
I thought.
“To Maisy?”
“Yes.”
“No.”
That surprised her.
“Then why don’t you trust me?”
“Different question.”
She nodded.
Some relationships recover safety before intimacy.
May you like
Some never recover intimacy.
That is allowed.
