Your mind was constantly filled with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety, and trust issues. And found it hard to be intimate with your boyfriend, Lando. On your 4th birthday you was sexually assaulted in your hometown Medellín in Colombia. It was your drunk father who did it and claimed it as a unique ‘birthday present’. The worst times was each of your birthdays on exactly 03:26 you had flashbacks and nightmares of the memory. Recovery from your trauma was hanging out with friends through the tough times in school. You never opened up to many because you felt people could see right through the thick wall around your childhood. Yesterday your heart dropped when, your little sister, who still lived at home, called you about your father attacking. Meanwhile your grandmother set you up for court to confront your father in Colombia.
“Baby… you have to go.. I know it’s hard..” Lando says.
You felt your hands trembling, by the thought alone to stand up and confront your father. Even worse. Face to face.
“I can go with you if you want, my love?..”
