Overcome with emotion, Cherry collapses into Ken’s arms, tears flowing freely. She cries, her face buried in his chest, letting out all the disappointment and frustration she’s been holding in. Ken wraps his arms around her, holding her tightly, allowing her to release the pain of the day. “It’s okay,” he whispers gently. “You’re stronger than this. You’ll rise again.” Cherry sobs quietly, comforted by his presence, feeling the weight of her sorrow slowly lifting.
