Caress Of The Unknown – Emma Jawarneh

“I’m scared,” I admit. “I’m scared you’ll hurt me again. Scared to trust you.” He closes his eyes, his hand tightening around mine. “I know, Am. I’m scared too. But if you give me a chance, I swear… I swear I’ll never give you a reason to doubt me again.” For a long moment, we just sit there, wrapped up in each other, letting the world fade away until it’s just us. I can feel his heartbeat, steady and strong against my own, and it soothes something deep inside me.

And then, slowly, I let go of the last shreds of my anger, my hurt. I let myself fall, not into the pain or the fear, but into the warmth of his arms, into the love that I know has been there all along. “I forgive you,” I say, the words coming out soft but true. “I’m still hurt, but…

I forgive you, Ricky.” He pulls me close, holding me like he’ll never let go, his arms wrapped around me so tight I can barely breathe, but I don’t mind. I don’t want him to let go. Not now, never. At this moment, I know we still have a long road ahead. But with him beside me, with his hand in mine, I think…

I think we just might make it. Ricky’s voice breaks the silence. “There’s something that I’ve been wanting to talk about.” “What is it?” Ricky pulls back, and the world stills when our eyes meet. “I—I’ve talked to a coach in the U.S. We are going to train with him. You know, Am. My parents’ reputation, your father’s reputation. It’s all in our hands.” “Good, I’m a black belt in taekwondo.” His eyes widen at my addition. “Really? Didn’t think you’d be the tough girl vibe!”

“Ah, c’mon! I had to train. You know, fighting with the Cupid Mafia.” “Ah, right,” he murmurs. “Stay here; I need you.” “Alright.” “I miss you, Amelia.” “Me too.” “You can’t imagine how much I’ve longed to see you.” “And so many tears have fallen—all because of you.” “I’m sorry.” “It’s okay.” We share comfortable silence; no words needed.

Just Ricky’s arms around me are the only thing that I would ever need.
