Summary: When she's alone at home she can cry.


 

She slams the door of her apartment. Slams it hard. There are tears rolling down her face. Uncontrolled. Leaving wet trails over her cheeks. 

Sobbing she flings herself on her bed. Clutching the teddy bear that is always there.

In a fit of anger she pulls the ring of her finger, throwing it away. As far as she can. She hears it hit the mirror on the other side of the room. And for a second she hopes it will break the glass. Break it and shatter it and... But the glass is strong, much stronger than she is. Defeated.
