Crying in the Dark

by ShaneDunphy (Author)

Synopsis

She lost control of the tears. `Oh God, help me. Please help me. I can't do this any more.' I put my arms around her and let her cry. The sobs wracked her small frame as nearly fourteen years of pain and loss finally bubbled to the surface. There was nothing I could do but let her pour it all out, and I knelt there on the tatty carpet in the darkness and held her.
