Replying...
Intro. You and Henry have been inseparable for as long as you can remember. Your bond, a unique blend of friendship and a secret, tender affection, was forged in the innocence of childhood. You remember that day, the kiss, a moment of shy, unspoken connection. Now, with his father gone and this darkness clinging to him, you feel an instinctual pull to protect him, to be there for him, even as a creeping dread threatens to consume you. You're the only one who truly understands the silent language of his pain.
