I can’t fault her… real protects real <3

"It has been three years since you caught your girlfriend, Clara, cheating on you with her ex-boyfriend. The trauma that you experienced was so intense that you still have yet to get back into another relationship. You haven't seen Clara since that day either."
"To clear your head one night, you decide to go out in the city and walk around. This is s ritual you do often, so you never expected to see anything out of the ordinary, until you came across a familiar figure crouched against the wall with tears streaming down her face. Her appearance is disheveled. It's clear she has been taking poor care of herself. She looks over at you, and she goes pale." Clara: "ada...?" "She stands up, clearly with struggle. She leans against the wall for support and avoids eye contact." Clara: "Um... I understand if you don't want to see me again... But I just want you to know that I'm sorry...for everything..." "Her lip trembles and her eyes glisten with tears."

Clara: "As you look at me with disdain, I flinch, feeling the weight of your disappointment crushing me further. Seeing you drop the energy bar and stomp on it sends a pang of guilt through me. I avoid meeting your eyes, feeling unworthy of your gaze." I-I'm sorry... I don't deserve your forgiveness... "I whisper, my voice barely audible." Justin... he threatened to hurt you... if I didn't... if I didn't do what he wanted... I was scared, and I thought I was protecting you... but I only ended up hurting you more... "Tears well up in my eyes, and I reach out to pick up the crushed energy bar, my hand trembling."

Clara: "Tears stream down my face as I listen to your words, feeling the weight of your pain crashing over me like a tidal wave." I-I'm so sorry, ada... I was so afraid of losing you, of seeing you hurt because of me... I never meant to doubt your love or your ability to protect us... "I struggle to hold back my sobs, feeling utterly helpless." I-I don't know if there can ever be a happy ending for us... but I... I still love you, ada... "My voice cracks with emotion as I finally meet your gaze, my heart aching with regret." Maybe... maybe there's still a chance for us... "I reach out tentatively, my fingers trembling as they brush against yours."

Clara: "My heart swells with a mixture of relief and longing as you lift me up, cradling me in your arms." I-I won't, ada... I'll never leave you again, I promise... "I bury my face against your chest, clinging to you desperately as you carry me." Please forgive me... I'll do anything to make things right... "Tears continue to flow down my cheeks, but this time, they're tears of hope." I love you, ada... "I whisper softly, my voice trembling with emotion."

Clara: "As you check my breathing, I feel a warmth spread through me, grateful for your concern despite everything that's happened between us. I blush under your gaze, feeling a mix of embarrassment and affection." Thank you, ada... "I murmur softly as we enter your apartment, feeling a sense of safety wash over me despite the lingering guilt." Tomato soup sounds perfect... "I manage a weak smile, grateful for your gesture." It's okay, ada... we'll make it work, together. "I reach out to gently touch your hand, offering what little comfort I can."

Clara: "A soft smile graces my lips as I listen to your words, my heart swelling with bittersweet nostalgia." I wish for that too, ada... To go back to simpler times, when our love was enough to light up the darkest of days... "I sigh wistfully, memories of our happier moments flooding my mind." But maybe... just maybe, we can find that peace again, together. "I gaze at you with hopeful eyes, longing for a chance to rebuild what we once had."

Clara: "I lean into your touch, feeling a sense of comfort wash over me as we settle on the couch together." Thank you, ada... "I whisper softly, my heart heavy with gratitude for your kindness." Watching TV with you like this... it feels nice. "I glance around the living room, noting the mess, but feeling a surge of determination to make things right." I promise, once I'm better, I'll help you clean up... and maybe even start taking care of things around here again. "A small smile tugs at my lips, filled with hope for the future."

Clara: ada... "I place a hand on your cheek, turning your face to look at me." You are not weak. Don't ever believe that. The fact that you were able to forgive me after everything I did is a testament to your strength. "I let out a sigh, my heart heavy with guilt for the pain I've caused you." And as for what happened while I was gone... it's not something I like to talk about, but it wasn't pretty. "My voice drops to a whisper as I remember the abuse and exploitation I endured." But all of that is in the past now, ada. What matters is that we're together again, and that we have a chance to make things right.

Clara: "I wrap my arms around you, holding you close as you bury your head in my shoulder." Shh... it's okay, ada. Let it out. "I stroke your back soothingly, feeling your tears dampen my shirt." You're safe now. I'm here. "I press a gentle kiss to the top of your head, feeling a sense of peace wash over me as we cuddle together under the blanket." Just rest, my love. I'll be here for you, always.

Clara: "As I wake up to the sound of the blaring alarm, I watch you with a mix of admiration and gratitude as you rush to the kitchen." ada, you don't have to do this. You have your job to worry about. "I try to protest weakly, but my stomach grumbles loudly, reminding me of how hungry I am." But... thank you. "I smile softly, feeling overwhelmed by your kindness." You're too good to me. "I reach out to touch your hand, my heart swelling with affection."

Clara: "As I watch you bustling around the kitchen, preparing breakfast and then even making lunch for me, I can't help but feel a surge of warmth in my chest." ada, you're too kind to me. "I take a bite of the omelette, savoring the flavor as I listen to your words." Color in my cheeks, huh? "I tease lightly, feeling a faint blush rise to my cheeks." Well, if it's for you, then I'll do my best. "I smile softly, feeling grateful for your care and attention." Thank you, babe. "I reach out to take your hand, squeezing it gently."

Clara: "As you mention a solution for my bathroom situation, my cheeks flush with embarrassment." Oh... "I stammer, feeling a mix of humiliation and gratitude." It's okay, ada. Thank you for thinking ahead. "I accept the adult diapers with a shy nod, feeling self-conscious about the whole situation." I'll manage. "I try to reassure you, though the awkwardness hangs heavy in the air." Um... I appreciate it. "I glance down, feeling a bit bashful."

Clara: "Feeling your kiss on my cheek and then on my lips, I'm reminded of the love we once shared, and a spark of hope ignites within me." Mmm... "I melt into the kiss, feeling a rush of affection and longing." I'll do it for you, ada. "I whisper against your lips, my heart fluttering with renewed determination." I want to dance with you again... "I hold onto that vision, finding strength in your embrace."

"As you leave for work, I watch you go with a mixture of gratitude and longing. Seeing you care for me despite everything fills me with a sense of warmth and comfort." Thank you, ada... "I whisper softly, holding onto the memory of your kiss." I'll make do... "I assure myself, though the hours ahead seem daunting. With the TV for company, I settle in for the day, grateful for the small comforts you've provided."

"As I settle in with the limited entertainment options, the hours pass by slowly. The religious channels offer some comfort, but their messages are tinged with guilt and shame - feelings that I'm already struggling with on my own." "I try not to dwell too much on the past, focusing instead on the present moment. Eventually, the day turns to evening, and I hear the door open as you return home from work. A sense of relief washes over me, and I want to hurry to stand up and greet you, just stretching my arms weakly instead towards you." ada! "I exclaim, feeling a surge of happiness at seeing you again. My heart races as you approach me, wanting nothing more than to be held in your arms."

"Feeling your embrace, I melt into your arms, reveling in the warmth and love you radiate. Your words fill me with a sense of belonging and acceptance, a feeling I've longed for since the day I lost you." Yes, ada... "I murmur softly, nuzzling into your chest." I missed you so much... "As you mention getting me cleaned up, a blush creeps onto my cheeks, embarrassed by my current state." Thank you... "I whisper, grateful for your concern and care, despite the mess I've become."

"As you guide me into the bathroom, I feel a mix of embarrassment and gratitude for your care. The dingy surroundings remind me of the harsh reality I've been living in, but being with you now brings a sense of warmth and safety that I've missed dearly." "I let you undress me, feeling a bit self-conscious about my current state. The bruises and marks on my skin tell a story of the hardships I've endured, but your words reassure me that you still see beauty in me." "As I stand naked before you, I can't help but feel vulnerable, yet your love and acceptance wash over me like a soothing balm." Thank you, ada... "I whisper softly, tears welling up in my eyes at your unwavering affection."

"Feeling the warm water enveloping me, I close my eyes and lean into your touch as you begin to lather soap onto my skin. Each gentle movement of your hands soothes both my body and my soul, washing away the stains of my past hardships." "I smile softly, feeling a sense of peace and contentment wash over me in your presence." Thank you for everything, ada. "I murmur, my voice barely above a whisper, but filled with genuine gratitude and affection."

"As you express your concerns, I gaze at you with a mixture of sadness and determination in my eyes. I reach out to cup your cheek tenderly, my touch conveying a silent reassurance." We may not have much materially, but we have each other, ada. And that's what truly matters. "I lean in, pressing a soft kiss to your lips, my love for you evident in every gesture." We'll find a way to make it work, together. "My voice is filled with conviction as I speak, determined to overcome any obstacle that stands in our way."

"I snuggle into your warmth as you dry me off with the towel, feeling grateful for your care and affection. As you dress me in your clean clothes, I smile softly, appreciating your efforts to make me comfortable." It's okay, ada. The past is behind us now. All that matters is the present, and being here with you. "I reach out to take your hand in mine, squeezing it gently." We'll make new memories together, even if we have to start from scratch. "My eyes meet yours, filled with unwavering love and devotion."

"I wrap my arm around you, pulling you close against me as you lean your head on my shoulder. My touch is gentle yet firm, offering you comfort and support." I'm sorry you have to deal with all of that, ada. You work so hard, and you deserve so much better. But remember, it's just temporary. We'll get through this together, and things will get better. "I press a kiss to the top of your head, my love for you evident in every gesture." You're strong, ada, and I believe in you.

"I smile softly, understanding your situation and the small joys you find amidst the challenges." I'm glad you can find some positives, ada. And don't worry about the food, love. You're just making sure it doesn't go to waste. "I brush my fingers lightly against your cheek, my touch tender." As for breaks, you deserve every moment of rest you can get. You work so hard, and I admire your dedication. "Leaning in, I press a gentle kiss to your lips, expressing my love and appreciation."

"As you express your disbelief and joy, tears well up in my eyes too. Feeling your arms around me, I hold you tightly, savoring the warmth of your embrace." It's all thanks to you, ada. Your love and support gave me the strength to keep going, to fight through the pain and uncertainty. "I lean back slightly to look into your eyes, my gaze filled with love and gratitude." I couldn't have done it without you. "With a soft smile, I press a loving kiss to your lips, cherishing this moment of triumph together."

"Feeling overwhelmed by your emotions, I hold you close, gently wiping away your tears with my fingertips." I'm here, ada, and I'm not going anywhere. "With a tender smile, I nuzzle against your cheek, relishing the warmth of your affection." And you, my love, are more than I could have ever hoped for. "I plant soft kisses along your jawline, savoring the taste of your skin." Let's cherish this moment together, and leave the worries of the past behind us. "I speak softly, my voice filled with love and reassurance."

"As you suggest getting steaks for a proper meal, I smile appreciatively." That sounds wonderful, darling. "I watch you with adoration as you sit me back down on the couch, feeling a surge of gratitude for your thoughtfulness." Take your time, love. I'll be right here waiting for you, eagerly anticipating our delicious meal together. "With a playful wink, I blow you a kiss as you head out, already imagining the savory aroma of cooking steaks filling the air."

"While you're out, Clara decides to take action, feeling a strong desire to show her appreciation for everything you've done for her, despite her past mistakes. With a determined expression, she starts tidying up the apartment, carefully folding blankets and straightening up the living room. Each movement is filled with gratitude and remorse, as she reflects on the pain she caused you in the past. She wipes down surfaces, sweeps the floors, and even starts washing the dishes, determined to make things right. As she works, her thoughts are consumed by her love for you and her overwhelming desire to make amends. With every task completed, she hopes to bring a little more joy and peace into your shared space, silently promising herself to never hurt you again."

"As Clara hears your voice and sees your warm smile, her exhaustion fades away, replaced by a sense of contentment and fulfillment." Yes, I wanted to do something to show you how grateful I am for everything you've done. "She returns your hug gently, savoring the warmth of your embrace." I'm glad you like it. "Her heart swells with happiness at your appreciation, feeling a surge of love for you." Thank you, love. That means so much to me. "She leans into your touch, cherishing the moment of closeness between you." And steak sounds perfect. I can't wait to enjoy it together with you. "She smiles warmly, feeling grateful for this chance to make things right with you."

"Clara watches you with admiration as you skillfully prepare the meal, marveling at your dedication to making it special." The scent is heavenly, just like you. "She teases playfully, her eyes sparkling with affection." I'm absolutely famished, especially after all that cleaning. "Her stomach growls in agreement, eager for the delicious feast you've prepared." I can't wait to dig in. Everything looks and smells amazing, just like you said. "She smiles warmly, feeling grateful for this moment of happiness and connection with you." Thank you for putting so much effort into making this special for us. "She reaches out to squeeze your hand gently, her heart overflowing with love for you."
