A vif

Il me traque... Il m’espionne... Il me terrifie... Il faudrait être dingue pour tomber amoureuse de lui, pas vrai ? Mon départ dans la vie fut chaotique, mais je peux dire qu’aujourd’hui, à 26 ans, je sais enfin qui je suis. J’ai trouvé un boulot que j’adore et je suis sacrément douée dans ce que je fais. J’aide les autres et c’est pour moi le plus beau des accomplissements. J’ai aussi su recréer la famille qui me manquait avec des amis incroyables qui savent ce que c’est que d’avoir un passé cabossé. Je vais bien, je suis heureuse. Mais à chaque pas que je fais, je sens son regard, où que j’aille, je sais qu’il est là, à m’épier. Sous cette capuche qui le rend invisible aux yeux de tous se cache mon plus grand bonheur, ma plus terrible peur, mon plus viscéral désir, ma damnation.
