“Shhhh, Cassandra, it’s our little secret.”
Secrets are stubborn things when they refuse to remain
hidden. They tear through your soul, clawing and lashing until the pain becomes
so unbearable, you’re left no choice but to silently scream your agony. No one
hears you, of course. You smile on the outside and drift through life as though
your mind is at peace, but all the while, you remain your own tortured
prisoner. Sealed inside the darkened, soundproof room of your conscience,
deafening cries echo as you plead for someone to unlock the door and release
you from your nightmares. And eventually, when no one comes, you find ways to
cope. To dull the suffering the only way you know how.
But what happens when you’ve become so numb, when everything
around you has become so blurred, that you begin to lose focus on the saving
grace standing directly in front of you? When you’ve anesthetized yourself to
the point of losing consciousness, forced to watch as his once solid image
fades away, lost to your reach in the haze as it smothers you?
What do you do then?
You fight. You heal. Then you bring him back.
Well, my name is Cassie Cooper, and it’s time.
No more secrets.
This is my story.
