For most, darkness is a temporary state—a precursor to sleep. But for the lonely girl in the dark room, it was a landscape she had inhabited for far too long.
The room was Emily's refuge, her sanctuary. It was a small, dingy space with walls that seemed to close in on her.

Love, in the stories we tell ourselves, arrives like a battering ram. It kicks down doors. It sweeps lonely protagonists off their feet and carries them into the sunlight, often to the swelling chorus of an orchestra.
