As an abuse survivor I know how it feels to not trust the world. I too (although not as bad as her) used to put my guard up towards everysingle person that showed me kindness. I thought there was no such thing as kindness without a price. I never receive gifts, favors from others without equivalent exchange. I eventually learned unconditional love from my friends even though it took literal years, they were patient with me.
Seeing her learning how to trust, having the courage to try and trust someone again, to try and recieve kindness... it just felt so well written. Idk why other people complained that this is boring, I genuinely loved this.
It's a very very well written story from an an abuse survivor's POV and I loved every single detail of this 10/10
