"Yes, you can. You're made for this."
My eyesight blurred. I tried to hide it from the woman who gave me life, but she knew.
"She'll never come back. Don't blame yourself for trying to move on."
"But it feel like I'm betraying her."
"I know. You don't. Casper is different, so much different, and you know it. Don't be scared, he's waiting for you."
And he was. Lokking at me with his deep blue eyes, probably wondering why today was different than every other day. We trained hard for the show. I couldn't let him down. I took the reins.
