For four years she hid that her father had died telling herself he had simply run away, because that version of the story hurt less. When a classmate accidentally revealed the truth in front of the whole class, she just said she was okay and moved on. That is what children do with pain they do not know how to carry. It took @monikaco years to understand that an unhealed wound does not disappear — it just quietly shapes everything around it.
