 In the days that followed this incident, a heavy cloud of dirtiness settled upon me, tearing me at the seams. Confusion and conflicting emotions consumed my thoughts, I had experienced something unspeakable. I had been violated, but the word "rape" felt elusive, slipping through my fingers like smoke. How could I label it as such when I had willingly gone to his place? I had chosen to wear that alluring dress, knowing full well the power it held.
As I warred with this internal turmoil, he remained oblivious to the pain he had caused. Oblivious to the shattered trust and the fragments of my soul that lay scattered in the aftermath. He continued to communicate with me, as if nothing had transpired between us. Amidst this chaos, I found myself questioning my own perception of reality. Was it my fault? Was I to blame for the violation I had endured? Had I not said "no" clearly?

In an attempt to regain control over my tumultuous emotions, I made a decision. I would enter into a relationship with this man, hoping that it would alleviate my pain, giving me a sense of security.
Over time, I made myself believe that he was the one. And I was meant to be with him. My feelings for him deepened, as I fell in love with his brilliance and the idea of being with someone so different from my previous partners.
