I want to become a better man, one who can accept the love of the woman he's fallen for, but I won't be able to do that until I've healed my screwed-up and broken mind, which is why I need to speak to my sister. I can't offer Tessa love right now, but I want to because I feel it. It's there, buried deep inside my still-damaged heart. I won't ever be worthy of her unless I can offer her the world, and when that day comes, I'll fight for her. I'll fight every day for the rest of my life if that's what it takes because I refuse to let her be the one who got away.
