My glittering purple heart has beaten for you since I showed up on your doorstep as a fifteen-year-old lost girl.
Well, I'm no longer that teenager, and I'm no longer lost.
I don’t care that you’re my former guardian, that you’re fifteen years my senior, nor that you’re newly single and broken.
Make me yours. Love me how I love you.
Forever your butterfly,
Anika.
