With a press of a switch, the wheelchair began its steady retreat from Raegan.
Raegan remained rooted in place, grappling with her thoughts for an eternity, yet unable to grasp why she couldnt deny that it was anything but pity.
Although she knew deep down that her feelings werent rooted in pity, the words eluded her. Admitting her love for him felt like opening a floodgate of unbearable pain. Her affection for him felt like a regression to times of self-doubt. Her psychological barriers seemed to have resurfaced, imprisoning her in a familiar sense of confinement.
Raegan sank to the ground, embracing herself as tremors wracked her body, seemingly beyond her control.
Summoning her courage, she dialed the psychologist in Swynborough.
Mae, Im so scared. It feels like Im caught in that same vicious cycle again.
Upon grasping the full extent of Raegans turmoil, the psychologist responded with gentle reassurance, But do you recall the gestures of love hes shown you?
As Mae recounted those tender moments, Raegans mind flooded with cherished memories they had shared.
Maes voice retained its soothing cadence, enveloping Raegan in a sense of tranquility. As Mae recounted those cherished memories, they seemed to acquire a mystical allure, casting a spell of solace over Raegans troubled heart.
Raegans heart swelled with the realization of the multitude of sweet and heartwarming moments she and Mitchel had shared. Mae was right.
Despite the trials they had faced, how could they discount the depth of their connection over mere misunderstandings?
Mae added, From what youve described, it appears that Mr. Dixon hasnt abandoned hope either. However, hes concerned about your future happiness and wants assurance that your feelings are genuine. If youve come to understand your emotions, express firmly that your love for him is sincere, not rooted in pity, and offer him the reassurance he seeks. Raegan, do you recall what Ive mentioned previously? Love has the power to heal all wounds. You will both find solace and growth through it.
Maes serene and gentle voice infused Raegan with the strength to persevere.
With newfound determination, Raegan replied, I understand. Thank you, Mae.
